LQ9 thought to be turbed..

hey guys, im planning to turbed a 6.0L engine, im at the beginning line, gathering all required info for this setup, so any advice you can give me would be thanked, about engine everything is ok, just dont know very well which turbo would be the proper choose with this, engine is meant to be street/strip with something like 600 HP aproximately, going into a S-10 chevy truck. any info missed let me know it.

Is that going to be to the bottom end or the rear wheels? If so, you might as well put your forged rods and pistons in the motor now, while its out (don't make the same mistake I did).
