1G Non Turbo Conversion

This was taken from http://www.dsmtalk.com:

"Here's the list of things you need to do the conversion on a 1g. (1991-1994) it varies slightly for a 1990 so I'm not too sure on that one.
This list is the culmination of my research into making a non turbo into a stock turbo dsm safely without blowing stuff up. I do not have a how to yet because I myself am still working on it. BUT in theory it will all work. In reality, I still am not sure:

-throttle body
-throttle body elbow
-tap a hose barb into the intake manifold (for BOV line)
-uic hose
-lower ic hose
-stock sidemount ic
-turbo intake cam (at or mt depending on your tranny, exhaust cams are the same)
-stock 1g exhaust manifold
-stock 1g downpipe
-14b turbo
-stock 1g o2 snesor housing
-turbo ecu + wiring harness (the ecu plugs for the turbo ecu and several connectors for the mas, fpr solenoid, knock sensor and injector resistor pack)
-450cc stock turbo injectors
-turbo fuel pump
-turbo mas
-upgraded clutch if you have mt (act 2100 at least)
-turbo fwd oil pan
-knock sensor
-injector resistor pack
-all lines to connect turbo to water source off the head (turbotrix)
-all oil lines for the turbo (can be bought from turbotrix)
-new head gasket
-timing belt change
-rods, pistons & rings from a 6 or 7 bolt engine (depending what year your car is)
-block rework & head rework
-fuel pressure solenoid
-knock sensor
-new o2 sensor
-turbo mas (if getting a 2g mas then you need to do the 2g mas conversion) "

Well, I can believe if you want top boost to go that route, but some of that is bull crap if your not going to run over 12 psi.

I looked down this road for quite awhile and decided to just get a turbo car, there is a ton of stuff you'd need.

If you really want to do it though, I suggest you read Maximum Boost by Corky Bell. It is an awesome book and will give you all of the insight you need in to actually making the project successful, it can be found at the link below.... Good luck!
