Default 2.5 TBI turbo install, hopefully

so, i would hate to be one of those kids who fills the internet with page long pipe dreams about sequential quad-turbo geo's and other retarded things dreamed up in algebra class, so i will do my best to be realistic. i have a first gen S10 with a 2.5 litre Throttle Body Injected inline four. atmospheric presure is around 12 psi, if my memory serves, so at 9 psi of boost it would be at 21 psi. that is a 75% increase in air density. instaling the TBI and FPR off of a 4.3 litre would increase fuel delivery 72%. the 3% discrepancy could be made up through tuning the FPR. the engine only has a 8.3:1 compression ratio, which is low enough to keep detination, i belive. an intercooler wont be dificult so yeah, what am i forgeting. is this plausible or do i deserve a swift kick in the *****? thanks for your help.
oh, and disregard my spelling.

Its possible but don't assume that just because it has low compression that you won't have problems with detonation. That engine has a huge bore, for a 4 cylinder, and horrible combustion chamber design and its using a crappy wet flow intake manifold.. All of which tend to be detonation prone. I'd say go for it but do more research on the engine management side.
