it definately is a good mod. as for the other stuff needed yea all u need is a few screws (i actually didnt use them, didnt feel like drilling holes in the frame), some weather stripping and the rubber seal for the front of the airbox. i would actually recommend the FTRA over the slp intake cuz it gives you the extra piece that connects the airdam to the scoop. i bought the addon for my slp scoop from fast toys so u can go either way, its up to you
