In simple terms, if you buy a clean-air kit you need these items as well: Turbo with oil inlet and outlet lines and fitting for both. Oil breather tube off a turbo engine. Intake elbow that connects to the intake manifold with the 2 clamps and, usually, orange intake hose. I would also suggest a new exhaust gasket for the turbo. -Kelly

I have exactly all those parts except for the turbo and a new exhaust gasket. I reused my old gasket when I pulled my turbo off to drill & tap for the pyrometer probe. The old gasket seems to be working quite fine.

I didn't break a single bolt or stud taking off either turbo. A couple were a real bear to get off, but I finally got them free. I used high temp anti seize when I put mine back together, just in case.

I wonder why they call a "clean-air kit" by that name. It is only a complete turbo exhaust system. The "clean-air part" is provided by the turbo which supplies excess combustion air so the engine doesn't belch out clouds of black smoke like the old N/A multifuels.

the clean-air kit was used to upgrade NA "smoker" trucks to the forced induction system to reduce the smoke. The other parts were probably included to allow the full upgrade in the military. But, in the civilian MV world the exhaust kit is known as a clean-air kit.
