Need advices about going Single Turbo on a stock engine

As the topic says, I would like to know the perfect single turbo setup that I can get on a stock engine and what should I need (T78 ? front mount ic, manifold, injectors ?)

Give me a list !

Also, how much boost can handle a stock 13B engine without any porting, completely stock ?

Thanks !

porting doesnt really have anything to do with the amount of boost you can run. I have a stock motor with a t78 and i love it. im making 402.9 to the wheels at 19psi on pump gas with the kdr anti detonation device. i dont run that boost on the street becuase it is just too much and i dont get traction in 1st or 2nd gear and some of 3rd. I was assured that i will never blow an apex seal in the car because of the device in the current tuning. i am prolly going to up the boost to 25 psi on race gas when i get a kaaz differential. My other mods are in my sig. i drive and race on 13 psi and i still get no traction in 1st or 2nd. my high boost setting on my boost controller is at 17 psi.

The engine is strong enough internally for most single turbo street applications - it's all in the tuning.
