Turbo or Supercharge 18R-G

Ok people, guru's and generally knowledgeable dudes. I am having pipe dreams of forced induction into my 18R-GU.
I had wanted to just have a quick N/A motor, but after buying a top condition 18R-GU (recently rebuilt) i have the urge for forced induction.
So i need info on what parts i need to gather up for a mild turbo. I also want to know, should i go supercharge instead?
Here is what i have to work with currently:
- rebuilt 18R-GU with 88250 head. Stock 8.7:1 pistons ( i think)
- 45mm webers
- worked 88230 head with 45/37mm valves
- spare late model 18R-GU complete w/88253 (dbl valve sprung) head... its a bit worn
Now im thinking i will need the following, correct me if im wrong or missing something:
- Turbo
- Intercooler (small one)
- custom manifold (or is there a premade one?)
- EFI intake (fuel pumps etc also)
- fuel rail with bigger injectors
- Fuel only computer
Now i also just want some info on good ideas/setups for turbo-ing this motor. Like:
- what can the stock pistons/motor handle
- can i go carby turbo? or too much effort?
- advice
Also someone has offered me a worked head with 50/40mm valves, would it be worth utilising such a ported and worked head? or would i have to increase bottom end/piston strength to use release that heads potential?
HELP PLEASE
