Default List of Components...100% new to FI

I want to put a turbo on my D16, and im asking you guys for a list of all the components i need. Are new injectors neccessarry? I know you need the turbo itself, new manifold, BOV, intercooler, piping from turbo to intercooler, and a downpipe. I know i'm missing quite a few things, and this question may have been posted before but i've looked and cant seem to find it so sorry if its a repeat. Thanks guys.

You need to research more before you think about boosting. I am not trying to be an *** about it but if you need other people to come up with a list for you then you need to read some more.

Alright i've researched some more and basically i just need to know there 2 things. Is it necessarry to get a whole new exhaust from the downpipe back when you get a turbo? And is it usually neccesarry to get a new fuel pump and injectors with a turbo, or can you tune your stock fuel system to supply enough fuel to the turboed engine?

As far as i've read about FI, you will need a new fuel pump to produce more pressure. Since you are adding more air than the engine was ever designed to handle, you must also add more fuel as well. I don't think you need a new exhaust, just an new exhaust manifold and downpipe.

Makes sense...thats what i was thinking too, other than your new downpipe, a cat-back (turbo-back?) exhaust would probably work just fine hey?

Personally, I wouldn't do a turbo without good exhaust. With all the air coming in, you need a means of getting it out... If you don't a good exhaust, you are only hurting your performance and that's no good for anyone.

Down pipe + cat back = whole exhaust. A turbo back is pretty much all the piping from the turbo to the tail pipe which is a whole exhaust also.
