Default Best Way To Turbo a 2.0 Ford Duratec?

Right im getting hold of a Duratec engine to turbo. Im not after major bhp 260bhp will do as its going in a FWD car. I can always do something else to it later.

Now i think ive found a suitable engine witk 70k on the clock. Im guessing its best to do a full engine rebuild before i turbo it?

Would i need to change pistons and cranks for this amount of bhp? cosworth recommended pistons and new crank arms and cams (off them ofcourse ) but is this needed for around this bhp? Could i get away with just a decompression plate and cams like you would do with a zetec turbo?

Im going to be using this inlet manifold

ill use a escort cosworth turbo (the one of the small turbo version)

im trying to get a inter cooler system of a focus rs/st

can you guys reccomend anything else to me? whats the best way to do it?
