I did this about two years ago. I also used WIS. Since so much had to come apart, I renewed turbo seals (kit from eeuroparts), intake/exhaust manifold seals & hardware (eeuro sent me exhaust bolts that were too long but said they should be correct ones so watch that. I just cleaned up the old ones), timing tensioner seal & o-ring, oil sensor (below Int manif), dip stick o-rings and a few other things that needed changing and were accessible. The gasket kit from eeuro had the valve seals if you want to do that. The hardest part for me was getting the timing chain back on with the camshaft timing marks in the original position. Find a way to keep the camshaft sprockets from moving. Take close-up pics of those timing marks before removing the chain. I took pics of everything, laid all parts out in order, and labeled everything. You think you'll remember but you may not. Researched this board for anything relevant. I did it alone; even lifting/replacing the head wasn't that bad. Just watch the chain guide at the top, it's easy to break.
