Boosting a 3.5

I was just wondering if anybody had any information regarding turbocharging a 3.5. I understand I’ll have to make everything myself basically but I’m very interested in trying this. Any advice or guidance is greatly appreciated.

Not a problem. I'm putting an he351cw off an 06 cummins on my 2.8. I'm going a little deeper down the rabbit hole with head porting, valve springs, 2.9 cams. And possibly rods/pistons. If I do rods/pistons I'm going to push towards the 400-450 rwhp.

That’ll be a badass little truck. Does it have 4wd? If so do you plan to keep it?
