Can anyone help me set up my bowstring? I have 2 eliminator buttons, a peep sight, one kisser, a set of nocks, and a caliper-release loop, but no idea how far apart/where to mount them. Any help is greatly appreciated.

i work with a guy who is an avid archer--he says you should probably go to your local pro-shop for assistance.

Go to a bow shop. To set the sight up, you have to hold the bow at full draw to get the sight lined up with your eye before tieing it in place. I suppose maybe you could do it yourself by trial and error, but its much easier with someone helping who knows what they're doing.
The loop also will serve as a knocking point and requires careful placement to get good arrow flight. A good shop will have you test shoot the bow before you leave.
I bought my bow at gander mountain, and after having a hell of a time getting them to get a module to adjust the draw length, they set me up pretty good. I don't know how knowledgeable the employees are at all of their stores, but the guy I dealt with seemed to know his stuff. A dedicated bow shop would be even better though as they're more likely to have parts, and a place to test your set up out.
