Your stock cooling system should be able to handle a turbo setup. They dont produce a ton more heat unless something is wrong or you're beating on it constantly (road race).

If you have a full size radiator and the turbo is sitting on the radiator itself, I have seen cars over heat.

You have to weld the wastegate valve shut or you'll spool up really late.

Other than that, you need ZERO changes to your fuel system or computer.

Seriously though, read and follow through with the advice from Schister66, or walk across an expressway, blindfolded.
