Unless you disassembles the transmission, you don't use all the parts in the TransGo kit. You should have a few springs left over (three of which you don't use anyway - the kit is a universal kit and covers more than one transmission), some gaskets, blue and green seals, and (if it was included) a gold-ish plate and a few clips.

This is totally normal on just a shift kit installation. As for how much power it can handle...that would depend on the condition of the clutches/bands/seals, how much HP/TQ you're actually planning on running, and TQ converter.
