You're going to need:
a little air filter and an inline oiler on the suction side
then on the other side 18" of heavy duty hose (steal braided) to dissipate heat
a coalescent filter(removes oil/water) or at least a water trap
lastly a pressure switch and tank
for wiring a couple relays are good
and for fittings I like the all brass DOT push/lock style but compression fittings are good too just not reusable like the push lock style
