Hescos kit I see uses an auxiliary fuel pump and a FMU to bump up the rail fuel pressure to increase the output of the stock injectors and no timing retard. Bolts on to a stock intake manifold. I wouldn't touch it.

The second fuel pump and FMU is a poor method and difficult to accurately tune for the additional fuel needed and No timing retard- if you don't know what you're doing, is asking for trouble/detonation/broken parts. Rule of thumb is 1* retard for each 1 pound of boost, 5* retard for 5 pounds boost if you have adequate added fuel and good AFR's..
