Turbo Question

Im thinking of building my own rear mount turbo kit. Pieceing it together, piece by piece. What size turbo and exhaust housing will I need on a single turbo? I know that I will need like 42lb. injectors bigger fuelpump but do I need a different mass air? Just some questions that I had and any good input would help.

I built my own, worked out okay, and saved a ton of money. I got a master power T70 turbo, check out modularturbo (newer sponsor), he backs the products, and is friendly. Ford motorsports 42lb injectors, can't beat them for the price, and they'll support mid 450hp. Same mass air sensor, just obviously a good tune. My turbo had a .68AR on the hot, .70AR on the cold. You'll also need something like a mocal pump to scavenge the oil out of the turbo since it'll be mounted below the pan.

I actually got the BOV from ebay, the wastegate from Jose @ forced inductions (sponsor here, contact Dr Turbo if you prefer). Turbo was ebay too since it was used.
