Firstly u need to find a turbo and manifgold suited to the 2tg engine and the right size turbo for it. You will need to look at upgrading your injecters so u dont lean out. You want more fuel rather than not enough. If you plan on running the standard engine then dont go over 5psi or you will start causing damage to the engine. You could even look at just using a metal headgasket to save dollars. Considering you already have a haltech ecu you will need to get it setup for the turbo buy a professional. You need to put a drain in the sump for the oil and run lines from somewhere that has high pressure oil (posasible t piece out of you oil sendor). then you will also need high pressure water lines and somewhere for that to go back into( maybe around your thermostat housing somewhere.Then you need to look at a bigger exhaust something atleast 2 1/2 inch would be good. You dont need to have a intercooler but it would help. In the end i suggest just find the complete 3tgte engine and drop that in and get some of your money back buy selling the 2tgeu you have. I would not be doing it when you havnt even really seen how the engines work. Theres probably lots more you need to know about
