Looks great, and hell of a mod list. 
May I suggest, if it hasn't been already (I would assume so), a conversion to an '06+ or Z06 differential. If you're on the stock '05 diff with all that power up front, you're on borrowed time! If the diff goes, it can and often will take the transmission's main shaft with it, which can require a FULL teardown. Speaking from experience.... several times over.
If it's already set up, then no worries and enjoy! Great score!

I don't know if it's there or not still, but there's a guy in the parts section selling a built 3.90 '06 (I think) diff for a screaming deal.
With a blower, 3.90's are going to be, uh, violent...if the car hooks. But, for the money it's hard to beat.

Because it is, a bit.
Some of the aftermarket exhausts, with several slip-joints that can be a pain in the ahss to line up, like to move around on you when you're tweaking one part and affecting another. Doing exhaust installs on C6's is straightforward, but almost always annoying as hell getting aftermarket tips to line up just right.
