Turbo'ed 6.2 Questions

I just picked up a Military 6.2L diesel from a guy. He also has the whole set up to put a turbo on it. I want to put a turbo on this engine, but I will wait a while as I want to get my truck running before I go about tearing the engine apart just yet.

What I was wondering is what do you have to do to the engine to turbo it besides the intake, exhaust manifolds, cross over, ect... I have heard that you do not want to run over 10 lbs of boost on the 6.2l. The guy said that the turbo is from a duramax and it is running more than 10 lbs, how do you keep the turbo from putting out to much psi?

Sorry but when it comes to diesels and turbos I am a newb haha

Thanks, Matt
