1. no, it will work fine with the amount of boost you will be running
2. between 5 and 8 to be safe on stock pistons, you will be alright to go a bit higher if you know what you are doing...this is also subject to the turbo you will be using
3. there are a ton of parts, more than i care to list individually in this thread because they can be found in the Forced Induction section and with a little time spent searching
4. turbo is the cheaper route (most of the time)...but it sounds like you might need to do some research before attempting either route so you can decide which one is best for you, your budget, etc...
5. since you don't have NGC you will be alright with the stock computer...if you do the correct supporting mods
i think that you should look into using a SRT-4 turbo. it is the most affordable method to turbo your car, for what you are looking to do, and piecing together the kit and installing would be a great learning experience for you. there is a ton on info regarding the srt turbo in this section...check out the sticky.

yupp, Kevin has an srt turbo on his car. he'd be able to help more with issues specific to the magnum platform vs. non-mag.
