i think this topic has been covered... quite a few times. I remember it not being worth it...or not enough engine space. But with enough money anything can be done.
Try searching. I know there should be a few topics on it

ECU, aftermarket gauges, wiring harness, mounts, transmission, rear end. You can half *** the job and use weaker NA components, but then youll be replacing them when they break later. If you have the $$ to replace it all, do it.

13B-REW in GXL
I have a twin turbo in my GXL. It takes a lot of wiring, re-doing the motor mounts, oil pan, custom piping, complete TII drvetrain from the Tranny back, intercooler, exhaust work to get the downpipe to fit in right. Other stuff to I'm forgetting I'm sure. Misc. details. A lot of time and effort. PM me if you want to know any more details.
