Bluetop has smaller rods and lower compression and the redtop has larger rods and higher compression. The bigger rods are stronger but the compressions higher both have their pros and cons, ideally you want the 4agze internals including crank because they are very strong but as long as you don't want crazy horsepower they are not entirely necessary.

Sniff around the threads and various forums there is plenty of different ideas out there and ways to make boost, many many many ways. There are also threads on the different engine managements which you should look into. Only start once you are confident you can do it no good gathering the bits then realizing you don't know how to use them.

I'll point out there is an alternative to stand alone and that's a ignition retarder and variable fuel pressure regulator with bigger injectors although I can't recommend that over stand alone
