Default engine swap

I have a 98 civic dx 5 speed d16y7. The motor in my car is pretty beat from the previous owners. So what I want to do is buy a complete d16y8 sohc vtec engine. So what I'm going to do is type out a list of parts (some aftermarket parts for performance purposes) and if I'm leaving something out...please someone let me know.

1. d16y8 engine complete with I/M, injectors, vtec solenoid, etc.
2. p2p ecu
3. d16y8 engine wiring harness
4. skunk2 T/B (i will port the I/M to match diameter of T/B)
5. AEM sri for the y8


I'm pretty sure i'm leaving something out so please inform me. Also, since I will be getting the complete wiring harness for this swap it should be directly bolt it correct?? No custom vtec or knock sensor wiring? Thank you for any help!
