18R-GEU injection is multi-point, however the injectors are pretty small so they should be replaced with larger units if your goal is more than 200hp. You will also need an ECU capable of running a turbocharged engine (ie not the factory ECU).
Forged pistons are nice but optional below 250hp. You won't have to touch the bottom end at all unless you're aiming for insane power.
For a budget setup, all you really need is the following:
- suitably sized turbo (eg MR2 CT26, series 5 RX7)
- custom exhaust manifold
- larger injectors (ideally 300cc or so)
- programmable fuel-only ECU (eg Microtech)
- intercooler
- custom inlet piping
- 3" exhaust system off the turbo
- EFI fuel pump, fuel lines etc.
I think that covers the major stuff. That should get you to the 250hp mark without much trouble, with stacks of mid-range torque and a screaming top end.
