input on a trurbo

ok, right now i am looking at the possibility of a turbo on my 87 6.9. The one i am looking at is for the turbo its self only. What else, and how much would i be looking at for the rest of the plumbing? and whatever else it would need? Its just a thought for now...

I would recomend getting a complete kit. You will thank yourself when you are trying to put it on. I got a used Banks kit for $500. Just look around. If you are not in a hurry you should be able to find a good deal.
