it will bolt on but there are some small concerns that need to be addressed...so no its not 100% plug and play if thats what you're asking.
By small concerns, he means generally, the intake is on the wrong side, as is the window washing fluid, and about 10 other things ^ ^ enjoy!

Whats EGT? Also I don't remember if I asked already but is it hard to adjust ignition timing and fuel management? And what do you need to adjust ignition timing and fuel management?

EGT means Exhaust Gas Temperature

Basically, by reading the temperature of your exhaust, you can tell how hot it is in the combustion chamber.

On cars now and days, ignition timing is controlled by the computer but there are two ways you as the modifyer can change the ignition timing:

1. Using a device that lets you alter the timing via PCM (example: HP Tuners device)
2. Replacing your ignition system with an ignition system that allows you to change the timing on the unit itself (example: MSD DIS-2).

thanks that clears it up pretty good. This will probably sound stupid but here goes. So if I tune the igniton system how much boost could I run on stock internals?

That's the thing about boost...there is no set amount you can or can not run. Also, if you're refering turbocharged boost, PSI as far as power output is all different according to the type, size, trim of the turbo. So 8 PSI on 1 turbo is not the same as 8 PSI on another turbo, basically...people have the misconception that "PSI is PSI no matter what size you have".
