sweet thanx guys, i asked bj now just waiting on a response from him i checked the boards as well, lots of shit to buy but the only real problem i think i will have is getting headers for a 3.4, just not many sites have em, if any knows where i can get some headers that arent outrageously priced that would be kewl but until then ille be setting my eye on some close to 600 dollar headers on one of the sites some one mention on here.

How much power you looking to output? If under 10psi you should be okay with stock internals. You a waste gate, a turbocharger(duh), a blow-by valve, boost controller helps too. A custom flange on your header to mate the setup. and some plumbing to help get the air into the intake. Oh yeah a pcm upgrade.

only way to do turbo is custom turbo headers which are not made right now except by dpp which will not be reopening for a while. You cant just get a flange to bolt onto the existing manifold, there isnt enough room and the stock manifolds dont flow enough. Itll be long custom process if you wanna make it work. Good luck.
