Basic Engine Upgrades

Hey guys I am new here I think that CL is freaking great. My plans for my sc is to eventually go with a turbo kit. My question is what do I have to do to prepare my engine for this type of upgrade and what type of kit should I get?

Start gathering parts you will need if you are going to boost. No need to buy headers, intake, or over kill exhaust if you plan to boost down the road. I would do suspension, audio (if you are into it), maintenance, but keep away from the engine bay.
