Post What's needed to build a Turbo 5.0L?

Hi,
This is in relation to my prev. post about knowing how to make more power. Well, my plan for my car is to do a single Turbo setup (using a Garrett T04 turbo from a junkyard), in a year or two.

My engine being totally stock (except for mild cam), and the fact that I might just buy a new C&L MAF (for 19# injectors).

What kind of upgrades would I need to make the engine, so it can handle a turbo running 9psi (or little higher)?

I've read the Turbo How-To article on SN95 and the requirements seem to be simple upgrades
- Fuel (pump, injectors, regulator)
- Ignition
- Air-flow (MAF, etc.)
- The usual exhaust plumbing and turbo
necessities
- Tranny + clutch (enough to handle the power)
- Cam

Is this all that's needed? How much HP can the stock 302's engine parts handle?

Thanks!
Bye!
