well you can turn the fuel screw up in the pump an 1/8th of a turn..(theres a video on youtube il try to find).. as for intake stuff u can try to find a cucv (military style) air cleaner assembly.. its not worth putting a turbo on unless you find on from a 6.5 turboed van.

Try Heath Diesel performance, he specializes in the 6.2/6.5

Banks also sells a turbo kit for this engine

any 6.5 engine you can take the manifolds off and put them on a 6.2, jsut have to find ways to route the oil return and supply, currently in the process of purchasing a 93 6.5 engine and hop to do the swap later this summer

You should check to see if you have an egr or non egr intake manifold. If you have an egr (huge actuator in the center under the air cleaner), you can swap it out for a non egr manifold and wake it up a little bit.
