Having never looked at doing this before, I'm wodering what the pitfalls are in applying forced induction to an NA motor, I've always just bought the turbo straight out.

I know that if the boost is kept low, say 6psi or so, that generally the NA motor can be left untouched,
but...
we all also know that I'll want to wind the boost up later, so am I better off rebuilding a motor before I put it in, or waiting until I can afford to add the turbo/supercharger & doing it then.

The motor I thinking about is a 1MZ 3.0L V6 (Camry, Lexus ES300)
The things I know that I should do are:
forged pistons with lower compression, say between 8:1 or 9:1 (does anyone know compression is standard?)
Add an intercooler.

Anything else I need?

What would be the deal with the map sensor?
Will it run out of range with the boost?
If I change it to one from a turbo car, say GT4, will the computer then get the right readings?
