Question Please help, trans swap?

I have a 89 gtu it is non turbo and my 5 speed is shot. So i went out and got a turboII 5speed trans. What do i need to do to put the turboII trans in my gtu ? Is it a "bolt-in" Replacement or do i need to do any mods? Can i use The same clutch that is on my car now? How much hp can the TurboTT trans handle?

-New Clutch\PP + Flywheel OR RB adapter (which I haven't seen)
-Custom driveshaft, or you will need to drill the new hole pattern on the diff flange (I've heard a NA AUTO driveshaft will work without any problem)
-Turbo slave cylinder.

I have an 88 se which is non turbo and an automatic. I could use the drive shaft from that. So this is what i got,

TII Trans
TII starter
Automatic drive shaft

All i need now is the clutch, flywheel set up
Does anyone know where i could get the whole clutch set up. I want a pretty good clutch because i am considering bridge porting. Lemme know if you got a site that would be useful.
