Yes, in that price range you should get:

1) Timing Belt
2) Water pump
3) T-stat
4) Tensioner roller
5) Idler roller
6) Serpentine belt

Here's a link (but I think you've got to cut&paste it
as AW doesn't like direct link from outside):

My process ran just under $1,400 at the dealer while
they were replacing my turbos :) ... I saved $400
since they already had it apart.  Typical cost at that
dealer for the whole timing belt procedure is $1,800.
