There are three main turbo options for your pickup.

ATS, Banks and Hypermax.

Just do a search. There is a lot of info on here to keep you busy for days.

Do you have a turbo you are trying to install?

Or are you looking for a turbo kit to install?

If you get a turbo kit it will have everything you need in the kit.

ATS uses the stock intake and exhaust manifolds.
There is an adapter that bolts on the stock intake for the turbo to hook up to.
You remove the stock Y pipe on the exhaust, install a Y on the back of the passenger side exhaust manifold for the turbo up pipe to hook to and the cross over pipe from the drivers side also hooks up to the same Y.

You get a turbo pedistal that bolts on where the CDR is now.
Oil gauge relocates to the turbo and the turbo oil supply goes where the gauge is now.

New drivers side rocker cover, which is where the CDR relocates to.

And you need a downpipe from the turbo to the exhaust system, which should be upgraded to 3".

Banks is in the process of dropping the IDI turbo systems.
So that leaves ATS or Hypermax.

I can not think a turbo with no oil is going to stay together very long.
Turbo speeds 80 to 100+ thousand RPM with no cooling or lubrication just don't sound good to me.
