Everything that is electronic. No not electric like the starter. I am talking radio, ECU, TCCS computer etc. In otherwords if it had silicone in it, probably dead. Of course you mght get lucky and nothing.... but I would not count on it!
+1 for fried ecu. someone on here posted the same thing not long ago. i believe thats where the second quote in my sig came from.
Most of the aftermarket electronics in the car will probably all be fried. (Radio, aftermarket fuel computers, turbo timer, etc...)
Most of the factory systems have a chance of surviving due to the fusible links under the hood. As mentioned, check those first.
If you've replaced them all, and you've still got a "crank no start" condition, start here:

Get out a good digital multimeter and with the cables still connected to the ECU, follow these diagnostic steps:
Don't just start randomly swapping parts, do the tests and you'll figure out exactly what's fried.
