I'm sure someone else will chime in.

Stock internals are not going to hold up well if you're hard on it.
You cannot use the stock ECU. If you get a kit it should come with an ECU.
Injectors should be fine.
Considering the cost just go get a Speed3.

If you have an auto dont bother, if not then your gonna have to look into carbon treating the gears once you get past/near 300 (which is not hard). As far as the ECU you need a standalone. There is no chip available and is highly recommended not to do it anyway, there are 2 maybe 3 companies that have a "tuner" but is not good enough for a turbo setup. You good on injectors, and depending on condition of motor your not gonna want to see past 7psi
