Turbo engine install in a SC?

I've been reading every post I can find on this forum on how to get more HP for my '83 SC Cab.

I could really use some advice from you guys on what route you might take.

1. I've found a used turbo engine ($7500) in a local Porsche junkyard, they will warranty it for 30 days. How hard is the swap and what would I need to change ie... clutch, oil coolers, etc. I'd like to end up with 350 + HP, so new turbo, cams, exhaust, bigger intercooler? Whats my 80,000 mile 3.0 (very good engine) worth?

2. Supercharge my engine ($7000) plus the cost of 3.2 p/c's with lower comp. &new cams. Seems easier than turbocharging plus I have some supercharging exp.

3. Use tblitz's cis to efi then turbo or supercharger.

Can I get 350 + HP for less than $9000?

Any other ideas?

Thanks, Randy
