ok i am planning to turbo my 5sfe, my problem is what to do?!!

1. should i just buy 3sgte manifold with ct26 and all of the needed parts ( i read the posts about it and i'm sure you have too so no need to list ALL of the parts)

2.get head work done to my 5s head for a gasket match and port/ polish then do #1

3. buy a 3sgte head and match it to my 5s block, then do step #1
questions about #3 (DON'T FLAME ME)
CAN it be done w/o going to a machine shop? can it be done w/o replacing and internals from the block?
4. i was wanting to know if a t3 turbo would put out the same numbers as a ct26...simply becuase every other car in the world uses t3 or t4..why can't i?
-if i go with step 4 then of course i will port/polish and gasket match and posibly have the head milled just to have it level

the numbers i want to try to achieve are simple..over 200..psi.-under 15...maybe 12. this will be a daily driver so cost is low and down time is lower. i can do nearly anything, and i am going to wyotech in July, so i have no fear of fabrication...i only fear price and damage to my dear celi....

thanks for the help ahead of time and be gentle. i would also like to gain enough info on this thread to use it as a sticky for other users

If i can i would also like to out do pressure 2 in HP numbers for 5s block(yeah i know i may use 3g head but still)
