you'll want to look at your cooling system as you're going to add more heat into it that designed for.

even if it's only improving the air flow to the radiator, or something more substantial like extra fans.

might be worth talking to a radiator place to see if there's aa heavy duty item you can run.

carefully plan your water lines to/from the turbo - you want it flowing regardless of state of the state of the thermostat (e.g. cool fluid from lower block, hot fluid into top pipe after the thermostat)

plus oil cooling will help - whether it's the donut cooler/heater at the oil filter - or an external unit out the front. FWIW: i'm using an external trannie-cooler to take the heat out of oil going to the turbo - it's not a full-flow cooler.

And if you're going to put an aftermarket ECU that has an RS232 or USB port, get a cheap laptop to help with tuning - otherwise you have to use an auto-elec or dyno shop everytime you want to tweak the system.
