330i F/I possibility?

I know there are threads about turbos and superchargers for the e90/e92 na engines but I kind of need some advice about an idea. I want to turbo my 06 330i so I'm trying to figure out how to make it happen. I know I have to get a custom exhst manifold made with a flange for a turbo, a downpipe, FMIC and tubing, BOV, boost controller, lower the compression, increase the fuel, and get the ECU on board with it. I want to do it this summer. I have some specific questions:

1.) Can I use a 335i fuel pump, fuel injectors, and head gasket? Or do they not match up?
2.) Can I piggyback a control unit to the ECU so not ECU mods are needed?
3.) Does anyone know how much it might cost to get a custom exhaust manifold built?
4.) Does a downpipe connect to your exhaust system or just dump into the atmosphere?
5.) Did I miss anything I'll need?
6.) Also, can the stock internals and drivetrain handle 7-9 psi of boost and around 300 whp?

Please no "go buy a 335i" responses please. Thanks for any help!

It might be difficult for some to not say "go buy a 335i" instead because you're going to spend close (if not more) on doing FI on your car than just trading in your 330i for a 335i.

One of the critical parts is engine management(i.e. like a Motec system) and getting a tuner who is familiar with using it on BMW engines. These guys are known for their work with turbo & superchargers http://www.vf-engineering.com

You're a brave (& rich ) soul to even attempt this

Found out most of the answers. Guess it's not gonig to happen. I'm going for a new rear end instead.
