"start with oem parts" Do you mean you'd like to start out with your engine the way it is? (stock)

Well first off I would read the FAQ we have in the forced induction section. Doing research and understanding what your doing is going to be the best thing you can do. As far as the turbo kit itself, a T3 turbo will work well, I personally have a T3 .60/.48 and I love it, not too small and not too big. I would defintely go with an external wastegate, an internal will work, but it didn't work well for me when I wanted to boost more than 10psi. Fuel management and tuning and probably the most important part, so read up on that. Coverting to obd1 and running Crome will be your cheapest and best option. Other than that there isn't much to it. 200-220whp should be fine on the stock motor.
