Is the car auto or manual? I wouldn't really recommend boosting the auto.

Here is a basic list of things you will need.

Turbo
oil/coolant lines
charge piping
intercooler (If you choose)
Blow off valve
Exhaust manifold
wastegate
down pipe
engine management (most important)

I would, especially consider they aren't that expensive. The cooler the air is going in the more power you will make.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, the F22 engines are pretty strong. As long as yours is in good shape that isn't too many miles. If it had over 200 then I might be hesitant.

And if it does blow F22s are a dime a dozen at the junkyard.
