I know what you mean... The only think I can suggest is to start researching each individual item and what its purpose is ie BOV, Blow off valve, what is it and what is it used for. injectors, maf, ect. by the time you have found out what those items are, you will stumble across setups that others are running and things you didn't even know to ask and the "answers" to those things. "answers" - as with any forum there are those that probably know, those who think they know, those that don’t know **** but don’t know it, etc. Since most of my turboing a car knowledge has come from others on one forum or another, I like to think I'm as smart as the general opinion. There's some post that I have read where every poster agrees on some conclusion, a quick check of the FSM provides a different conclusion (I chose to believe the Nissan engineer?) You are going to have to educate yourself on this one or buy someone else’s car off them and hope they really had it figured out… Learning how to do in from forum information is more art, not science

You will hurt your brain if you try to memorize all part numbers and everything.go to the begining of the ka-t forums and read the "LOOK HERE FIRST" thread.About 90% of the info you seek is there. Thats why it was put up and "stuck"Most of folks here only blast you if you don't even try to search first.Just check out those first two threads and you will be well on your way.Welcome to Nico! Oh, and here is for your first post...
