Internals necessary for turbo D17

What internals would have to be done to put a turbo on a D17? I read the post by that one member, but in detail, what would have to be done? What would be neccesarry to run more than 8 psi? Also, how much would it cost?

you can boost up to 10psi on stock internals with no problems as long as you are tuned.

If you wanna boost more than that........they you need to upgrade your pistons and rods. If you do this.....might as well spend the extra money and do it right the first time and sleeve the block.

How much would I be able to boost after upgrading the pistons and rods? How much horsepower would that be?
