Default ls swap questions

About to buy a POS falling apart 87 CRX Si...
keep in mind I have a vette and I know virtually nothing about FWD cars.

I am gonna eventually drop a ls into it. the Ls will get turbo charged soon after dropping it in. as I am getting my friends turbo setup from his ls. its the 911 turbo. dont know exact T#

so the questions now

1. whats a safe boost to run?
2. in a RWD car if i get too much tq/ hp the rear end would break.... what would I risk breaking running stock LS with about 10 lbs of boost?
3. can I run slicks?
4. whats the cheapest place I can buy the complete swap for? I have a radiator.

thanks alot your friend
Sean
