What are your power goals and what's your budget?? Those are pretty standard questions, but nobody seems to give that information willingly before asking for help.

You can also check out the Forced Induction FAQ at the top of the forum for more help.

Whats your hp goals? For a stock turbo setup I would go with a t3/to4e (I have one for sale ) and definently grab some arp head studs. With the right parts (wg, fuel pump, injectors) and tune you should be able to make 300+ hp. It really depends on your goals as to what to use

if you want to keep it pretty simple and stock. get a walbro pump, injectors, some kind of ECU for tuning (crome, hondata, etc.) a good used turbo kit with like a t3t4 tune it to about 300 depending on condition of your motor and your done. no need for head studs if your not gonna make more than that

they arent a necessity but if more hp is in the future then u will need them. They are about 120 bucks worth of insurance

how much horse power you lookin to make. if your tryin to get into mid 300 or so youll wanna get h beam rods and pistons. your horsepower will also determin what turbo you use. dont worry about psi, cause you can be bostin 20 psi with a t25 and be put 225 to the ground or you can use 6 psi in a gt 60 and be makin 375 or so. you understand? establish a horsepower and make a plan. also search theres tons of threads bout this
