Thats pretty much all that you need. You should also pick up some vacuum lines(a crap load) some t-fittings, an oil drain line, and you will most likely find out what else youll be missing when you are doing the install. Good luck.
P.S. Im not sure but you might also need a new fuel pump.

Your car will not be even close to as reliable as it is now. Problems will be a part of the game. There is some give and take in a turbo relationship. Hope it all works out for you anyway.

Re: boost in an rs...need specifics
The more power you get out of a car the more likely it is to have problems. If it's done correctly the car can still retain it's reliability to an extent, but more power means more pressure and heat and that means more wear. And the AFC will work on pretty much any car.
