The o-ring and bolts are re-usable. Not sure what's in the turbo re-install kit, but make you're you're not duplicating parts.

While the turbo is coming out, you might consider replacing the up pipes. Also a great time to install a sleeve or hose over the passenger side fuel line so it doesn't rub a hole in itself. And upgrade the HPOP hoses if they are the oem, braided, poke you a million times, type.

Ahh, either reseal the intake plenums or get the billet ones from Clay, they will leak sooner or later might as well do them now while everything is apart.

Depending on your mileage if your thinking preventative maintenance you may want to replace your high pressure oil lines and do a fuel bowl rebuild. It's not really easier with the turbo out but it is good pm.
