Read these write ups:

Before you post in the Turbochargers Section: READ ME!!

If you have any questions, let me know. I did the same thing you did in the past and it took me months of planning and buying parts. Its not going to be an overnight process and its really a lot you should learn. Even now on my 2nd forced inducted vehicle, there are some things that I'm picking up and learning with.

whatever you THINK its going to cost to turbo your car... DOUBLE It... then you might still only be a few hundred bucks short.

We're being honest with you because we have experience on our side...I've literally done what you're trying to do on multiple cars now.

You need to do this with a different approach without putting money in the #1 category. If you don't, then you are doomed to fail at your project. It WILL get expensive. It will be frustrating. You don't know enough about forced induction to even get involved right now without other peoples help to do it properly...it happens.

Stop buying parts and buy some books (I'm not being a dick, I'm being serious). If you want some suggestions on books, let me know. If you want some write ups, let me know. Otherwise, you're going to end up buying parts in the wrong order and without fully understanding why you're buying the following parts.
The truth has no place on the internet

That's some pretty damn sound advice right there.
