I have the fueling thing covered, standalone, dual injectors, completely controll about with laptop. Timing controll that with an msd box.
the 4-5K would probably be the breaking point. I asked for INPUT on a TBI site, with little to no responce, making me think they are not in need of one. But if someone had a truck and was going to swap to an LS style, it would be fun to build and play... here is a screen shot of the fuel tabel.

Like KB said the added fueling and tuning would be more of a pita than it would be to do the ls swap and turbo that.

I would be willing to loan the truck to you for mock up of a turbo tbi set up until I get the rest of my parts together for the swap if you want, just let me know before I start pulling the motor and tranny.

But I will deffinetly be getting with you on the turbo setup after I get the ls in there.
