I'll be the first to say that turboing a 130,000 mile 4.0 is asking for trouble and I'd never do or recommend it to anyone.

that being said, if you are going to go turbo here's my advice:
Do a full rebuild on the block with stronger than stock parts would be a smart idea, but if you're gonna go to all that trouble just build a stroker motor.
High flow water and oil pumps are a good idea. The 180 Thermostat should work fine, go with a 3 row radiator if you're going to the trouble of replacing it. If the Dynomax system is a Catback exhaust then no, you don't need to buy a new cat.
I've never heard of, nor do I know of any companies who make street suspension parts for them. There's just not enough of a market.
