   Consider all the 8v engines to be much of a muchness when it comes to boost There's lots of info on the forum dude, you just gotta dig it out The sticky threads are a good place to start

   Of course
   
   Real men don't boost the 8v anyway... 16v is the way to go

   You will need to alter a lot. Or change bits.
   .ie. weld a return yo the sump.
   Spark plugs
   Injectors.
   Smaller oil filter.
   Id say a minimum budget of £500 if you bargain hunt
   Dont forget decompression for the head
   
   Feel free to correct me as im only halfway through my turbo build

    If it's a budget build, don't bother.

    you can use standard compression (no head de-comp or double head gasket)with sympathetic fuelling and ignition timing if running low boost
    
    5-6psi roughly.. any more or for reliability then either of the above will make it a bit safer. Depends on your budget and how much your willing to spend.
    
    Just make sure the mapper uses a knock sensor when mapping eh Ross
