Most bolt ons will not be compatible with a turbo set up. Any intakes/headers/and most NA exhausts will just have to be replaced.

The only thing I can think of doing before ordering a kit would be to get a compression and leak down test done to make sure the engine is healthy.

you need to do alot of reading.
kits are a waste of money.
you can piece together your own and it'll cost alot less than the kits with extra to do whatever you want. you can find everything you need to know...
