I see a CL post listing an exhaust manifold, turbo, intercooler and some piping for $350. Is that all you need if you are not changing the fuel system? I'm thinking that it could not be that easy. I searched here, but most threads here also talk about bringing over the efi as well which i wont be doing. what else should i be aware of? Thanks.

You will need the intake side, manifold, injection, ecu etc... Carby's don't work well blow through or suck through. The advertised setup looks like only half (arguably less) of what you will need.
