I spent 12 years with a 1997 Integra-R as my weekend toy, so I understand your background.

The Harrop really makes this chassis/engine combo shine. I liked the N/A V8, but especially at high-elevation where I am at, the lack of torque started to frustrate me.

My best advice, given I installed a second-hand kit on my car, is to reference the installation manual and build a complete 'kit list', and bounce that off of the images out there (good search) of the entire kit contents. The handful of things that could easily be missed:
  • Check Valve
    Intercooler Install Grommet
    Misc. tube clamps
    Misc. fasteners

With that said, hopefully you have the OE items (injectors, manifold hose adapters, etc) that go back on the car.

Good luck.
