Thats the kit with ecm tb, etc... You would just need the intake and fuel rails.

There are a few ways to go about the rails and hooking them up.

Plenty of threads on the topic here as well.

Re: torque increase?
Injector size is based on the full engine, not just the intake.

when you say full engine are you referring to the psi needed for the engine itself to have steady idle?

I'm not an expert on sizing injectors, there are some fancy formulas out there for that.
