Default Converting XR3i EFI to Turbo

Sorry, if this topic has been up here many times before. roll:

I've got an XR3i with a pretty healthy bodyshell which I'd like to convert to Turbo.

What will I need? I'll most probably hang in a whole RST MFI engine and use head/inlet manifold/air box, etc. from the EFI car.

But what about the ECU and all those fancy sensors?

You need an exhaust manifold, turbo, exhaust, IC, airfilter, injectors, RST pistons, management and some piping.
