Ok here's the question i just got the hiboost turbo kit but this is my first import. I have the greddy turbo timer but what else would i need for the system, as guages and anything else to read the turbo. I plan only running 8 psi's for right now.

Well, if you've got the kit, you should have everything you need. Generally speaking, though, a kit is comprised of a turbo, manifold (often assembled together), oil lines, air piping, filter. Sometimes they'll come with an electric boost controller, but most often its a mechanical one (electric is better, though more expensive) and should also come with a BOV/wastegate or both.
Putting it together is usually pretty straightforward if you've got an ounce of intuition and bother to read the instructions. Shouldnt be too hard.

Thanks i have looked around and there really isnt a boost controller just from my car. Will any one work? Was looking at the greddy one since everything else i have is greddy, i was looking at the Greddy Profec B Spec 2 Boost Controller, Black Universal or the Greddy PRofec Type S, Black Universal. This is my first turboed car so im trying to make it easy at first while im learneing. Also i have heard that a wideband would be a good buy to> is that true or just something thats there to look good? thanks

Just about anything should work, as long as it's compatible. The Greddy one is a very good choice, though
