What do I need to do to prepare my engine for a T3/T4 Hybrid turbo?

For now I basically just wanna replace the stock turbo. I was gonna rebuild it but a thorough rebuild kit is like $75 on ebay but I can get a T3/T4 for a little less than $175 shipped.

Also... The info on the T3/T4 says it has a .50 A/R Compressor and a .63A/R Turbine. Now (just guessing) the compressor is the intake and the turbine is the exhaust? And do you have any idea what the specs are for the factory turbo that's in an 88 turbo coupe? Can you explain to me what the whole A/R thing is, I read it somewhere but don't remember what it was.
