AE92 so many ideas

hey again
I have had so many ideas for performance upgrades and stuff like that
and have done my research but am writing this for more help.
I have searched on TN for turboing a 4AF and the archived thread came up
it didn't really open any new doors and i know already that the 4AF isn't neck snappingly fast and never will be so im not hoping for massive HP gain,it wasn't built buy toyota for speed thats for sure im wanting to be different.
To the point now.
i have picked up a turbo (IHI turbo vf21) still works wasn't wanted so someone gave it to me
im just wondering i am going to definitely use this turbo in some way shape or form
im hoping it's on my car .
we all want to be different and i want to be different that means turboing the 4AF
i have the main part of the build and now need the manifold and other such things.
does anyone have any tips or pointers for a diy job and im only going to run it on low boost and if it does go ahead i will make sure to take pictures.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you everyone
P.S sorry for the long post

turboing a carb is going to be a pain in the butt. Tuning the fuel is going to be a nightmare.

First I would get a weber carb, tuning that is going to be a lot easier than tuning the stocker and they flow a lot better. (I have one for sale if your interested lol )

you'll also have to make some sort of pressure box around the carb i think so boost doesn't leak out the idle screws and such.

you also need to plan out how to get oil (and possibly coolant depending on the turbo) to the turbo

you have to remember this is "different" because it's a pain and not really worth it so no one else does it
