Injectors, maf, fuel pump, and definitely new head gaskets. A bigger throttle body and egr would be nice too but I suppose it won't make too much difference considering you'll have stock intake and heads.

you dont really need new head gaskets, the stock ones will sufice

I am almost done with my novi2000 install, things i got were 255 pump, got rid of the FMU and got 42# injectors, fuel pressure regulator, wideband so i know if the car goes lean/rich, msd 6btm, 2 step colder spark plugs, O make sure you run premium fuel, and you will want to get a tune.... After experiance with it i can tell you my car did not respond well to the s/c with no tune

Great advice, lol. Don't forget the P-mas blow thru mass air from JD's performance! and gap the plugs at .030
