Another Turbo 305 TPI question!

Please bear with me, I have a 91 Camaro with a 305 TPI and I found a Subaru Wrx turbo, blow off valve and intercooler on craigslist for pretty cheap ($150, 90k miles and no shaft play). I was curious about what I would have to do to put this turbo on my engine. I know I have to upgrade my injectors (I already have a set of LT1 injectors that I can put in), get a computer chip (because the factory computer only adjusts to 20% larger injectors), and fabricate piping (I have necessary tools and supplies) along with buying a set of headers. I would have to get a boost controller and I was wondering how that would wire in, and I know I would have to also install an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. I know this turbo puts out 15 PSI max, but I would most likely try to run it at more conservative 5-8 PSI (because the engine is stock). I'm not looking for huge HP gains, just a lil more power that I can do on the cheap hopefully.

Also, no comments about engine swaps please! I can't afford to at the moment and I am looking for replies about my topic and nothing else. Thanks for any useful input!!

Nevermind I did some research and this turbo is too small because it won't have enough volume
