Default TTi LS1 turbo kit help

I need a little info on this kit, Ive seen the video of Mechams WS6 with the TTi 13 #boost vs a single turbo Supra and that thing flies. Im thinking of either a D-1SC or this TTi turbo kit and need some info on this turbo kit. like what all do I need for this kit, what kind of fuel system should I go with?? (injector size, fuel pump? new fuel lines and fuel rails?) anything bad about this kit??
Id be adding some low compression ported heads and a turbo cam. Would I even need a catback? ive heard adding a turbo makes it quite enough that you really dont need one. I know KCM has some nice forged internal crank/pistons/rods kits for either stock 346ci or could set it up to 382ci. should I keep it at 346ci or jump to 382ci??
I have my NOS dry kit, and I was wondering if i was putting out 13 or so pounds of boost on forged internals could I also be able to spray a small amount of N20?? like 50 or 75 shot??
would a turbo work fine on a A4??
thanks for anyhelp
oh btw if Mecham reads this, Love your car man, whats all done to it??

Yeah I agree, you're talking about a standard blower kit versus one of the baddest turbo kits out there. Either one could help you handle a Supra But what are your goals? I know MM and Mecham both have a lot of time and tweaking into their cars.

I have a TTi Street kit and I freaking love it. I'd stay Stock displacement and run a set of forged pistons/rods. You should have some type of muffler they can be loud around town, I run an electric cutout. As for the auto, you are really gonna have to have it beefed up. I run a 4l60e with everything you can throw at it, a vacuum modulator is a must. Made sure you run a 3000 or more converter made for the Turbo. I had a ST3500 originally and it couldn't handle the torque.

Thanks guys for the help.. my goal is 650rwhp range. Isnt mecham at like 590 something rwhp?? but damn that things fast as ****.
I know Speed Inc has some custom 4L60E Trannys that are rated at different HP, I think the stage 3 is at 850hp, which should work for me hopefully. What kind of stall should I go with?? does Yank or Vig make ones for Turbo applications??
Should I just get pistons and rods, or do I need a whole new crank?
or even with the D-1SC, would a nice forged piston and rod be ok with a stock crank?

i'd def. get pistons.. rods.. sure while you are at it.

you dont need the displacement and certainly dont need the nitrous.
