Default Turbo recomendations?

Ive been looking around the internet over the past few months looking at parts but i cant really tell which kit would be better. Im hoping for around like 200-250 hp with stock internals and don't really know what parts to pick in terms of like, the prefab turbo kit, injectors, fuel pump, gages, if i need a maf delete, a EBC or PCV, an oil cooler. im just looking for all around recommendations on what i should get to turbo a 1.8 Miata while keeping AC and PS. Iven seen a couple of builds on youtube but i only really know about the main parts of a turbo system so im not that well informed to pick out parts myself and hoping that someone could help me here. (Sorry if this is on the wrong section im new to this site)

If your're struggling to put a kit together yourself, just buy a kraken 2554r kit with 2" hotside ic piping. Works with ac and ps. Quality is superb.
Buy full exhaust with turbo and lines and ic kit.
Need to buy ms3 or equivalent ecu, ev14 injectors 550cc+ (flow force or equal), dw200/walbro 255 fuel pump and a nice organic/fullface clutch (not puck style, for example supermiata, flyin miata, bofi, act). Pucked clutches suck to drive and are not needed for this kind of power.
Search a tuner in your area or remote tune like 18psi does on this board (vladituned).
Buy fresh fuel filter, hoses, clamps and an electronic boost solenoid (mac style or pierburg).

When having problems while installing just ask us here

I like the Kraken kits. I also looked at MKTurbo but they specifically state they aren't for track use so that scared me off a bit.
