My car seems to run the same with either the original 1986 900S LH ECU or a 1987 900 turbo LH ECU. You are one of several people who have expressed an interest in making this upgrade...don't you have an '89 900? I don't know how your '89 ECU will "react" to the turbo's output/needs. I am only familiar with adding a turbo to the 2.2 system. I don't foresee any problems with adding a turbo to your car, although you are not able to adjust as many variables as I am.
I would suggest at least stock 900 turbo injectors. The other things you will need are minor compared to the ones you listed.
There are many other variables, besides the 2.2/2.4 difference, which may produce different results than I have experienced. For example, my car is likely lighter than yours (no AC, no Power Steering); I have a 2.1 block, head, and intake; and I have a Mitsubishi turbo (highly recommended for this project).
Good luck!
