A basic turbo kit with no engine work on pump fuel all you need is 42# injectors.

If you decide you want to run e85 or build the engine to make more power and raise the boost then 60-90#injectors are needed along with a upgraded fuel pump and pump rewire. (I'm using a racetronics pump with there rewire on 60# injectors and pump fuel and so far havnt maxed out the injectors but we shall see soon.

Zzperformace, cartuning, stattama, 3800 pro, there's a huge aftermarket. I also have a basic turbo build planned and john (turbo monte) has given me some great advice. He will also tell you you're going to need a new, built, trans.

Boost depends on what supporting mods you have (cam, heads, fuel, intercooled, etc)

There is a huge aftermarket world as dbaldwin said. Also on other forums there is a huge used part market you could save a ton of money by using used parts.

Dbaldwin knows me to well lol yes you will need a built trans for sure as well.

Not sure what size l67 injectors are but I know they are smaller than 42# for a fact.
