Its a rather in depth kind of alteration to make to an engine thats not equipped with a turbo in the first instance, i should know, i did almost an identical conversion on a PB code 1.8 passat engine.
Parts list is going to be extensive.
Comprising of the larger parts:
Intercooler.
Turbo and wastegate( must be sized for the engine).
Ecu and wiring.
Manifold.
Injectors.
Oil cooler.
Various custom lines for oil and water feeds and returns.
Sump pan modification for oil drain from the turbo.
Low compression pistons- decompression plates are bad- avoid them.
Suitable free flow exhaust- stock item is not good enough.
A myriad of other small items and problems youll run into like siting of components can be a real headache.
If youre absolutely dead set on doing it, then get a book called maximum boost by Corky Bell, itll give you a good basic understanding of what you need to do to get a handle on it.
