Turbo on a 97 Lube

[ovcrash]

I'm looking to put a turbo on my 97 lube. But i don't really know what kind and wich size to get. I would like to get a T66 but maybe it's too much, i don't know i would like your advice?
I'm looking to get around 15psi on daily driven.
What size turbine should i get? Should i change my head gasket and get a high compression one?
what else should be changes when putting a turbo, cam gears? pulleys? injectors? fuel rail?
I'm changing the fuel pump with a high flow one, and changing the fuel filter too, so that's kind of a start.

Well let me know your advice, and i like crazy setup's...so if a T66 would not be to stupid to put, then let me know!

Thanks

Should i change my head gasket and get a high compression one?

Don't you want to lower your comp. for a turbo??

And you would prolly wanna change your injectors.

Well i don't know if i'm right but, high compression less boost? and lower compression more boost? but with high compression i get more torque so more power at start.

tell me if i'm wrong.

what size turbo should i use? should i leave the compression like it is?

would a T66 be too big?
because i wanna have like 300WHP for a daily driven car. OK! probably crazy of me...but hey, i can dreams...maybe it will come true!!!

and please- don't get a t66. you won't make boost on that until 8000 rpms.
t3/t04s will suit you just fine. FR63 or precision sc61/61 will suit you well into the 600+ hp ranges.
