you will need a bigger fuel pump, better ignition, if you actually want the power to get to the wheels, suspension work.

ya just as a quick rule of thumb....if you start adding boost you will need to add the other aspects that create combustion (ignition and fuel). As 19stang88 said, your ignition and fuel will need to be up'd.

probably 32lb injectors, msd ignition (distributor, coil, wires, etc).

again tho to get the power to the road, need suspension. subframe connectors, upgraded k members, a arms, coil overs, and at very least a strut tower brace. otherwise you will be all over the road.

frankly, i would throw a cam and heads onto the car before you even think of putting a blower on there.

depending on boost level desired 24's most likely won't be enough
