1993 z28 need how to turbo guide PLZ

If anyone can help me out with this, im good with cars and stuff but a newb to turbo/superchargers set ups.

But anyways im wanting to do a STS turbo set up on my 93 z28 lt1 with auto trans.

What are the things that are needed? any lists would be appreciated.

My main concern is how much different is it gonna be because my car has speed density compared to later years with MAF.

Im not trying to buy a complete kit as i dont have that type of cash, but im gonna put together my own kit and when its complete put it on my car.

Also one more thing is my engine is like brand new basically stock internals, its a crate motor with a mild cam. it still has the stock compression ratio, but im wondering how many lbs of boost i can run safely without having to redo my engine for it. Eventually im gonna buy a new longblock and fully redo it with lower comp. to be able to run high boost and all that happy crap

Thanks guys in advanced.

I'd say 7 or 8psi or so. '93 pcm is less user friendly to tune, swap a '95 pcm in (service# 16188051), use tunercats and datamaster, and do a 2bar speed density tune (a maf tune is easier and fine too unless you're maxing it out).
