Thanks. If you run into any trouble with the gauges, feel free to send me a PM!

They are going on my 6.5L.

The only piece you could really use is the turbo itself. You'd have to buy/make headers, and figure out a fuel injection setup that supports forced induction, or come up with a blow-through setup. On top of that figure out if the turbos operating range goes with your engine flow, and desired boost pressure.
