The new MAF connections were also installed and made things very easy vs previous kits which required the wires to be spliced. Simply plug and play!
Stealing this post and adding it to the FI finished build thread for you.

2. Should my water pump or Thermostat be changed/upgraded?
3. Will my Fast Intentions CBE and HFC's (Non resonated) be adequate, or cause any problems?
4. Any other recommendations?

Thanks....
Your list is good, like others have said, get a solid tune and avoid mishi parts.
The thermostat chuck has recommended is very good, I have used it also and it helps a little but is not a huge game changer.

With Texas heat you have to look at the cooling and venting with how hot our summers are. So need adequate cooling measure like CSF radiator and oil cooler, but also need to get the heat out of the engine bay. Another suggestion might be to thermally coat the piping to keep heat out of the piping.
