If it's one of those generic no-name kits don't bother, they're junk and made to target stupid kids that don't know any better. If you want a turbo kit call STS and see what they've got for you, they'll probably quote you an install price too.

In order to do a turbo correctly it's going to cost a pretty penny. In all reality to get it done right you're going to want to do an entire engine overhaul where you lower compression, get a cam that is appropriate for forced induction etc.

They CAN be installed on stock applications with minimal changes like larger injectors (usually supplied with the kit.)

STS has a rear mount turbo kit for $2,999. It is a 5spi system so it doesn't make a lot of pressure but it's enough for another 100hp or so.
Compare that to $6,000 for an underhood supercharger kit from ProCharger.
