Price depends on if you going all new equipment, single or twin turbo or possibly buying a donor turbo car that you can get most of the items you need to make this happen. So rough guess $1000 - $5000+.

How big is your bank account? After doing the turbo install, you will blow the engine, eventually, because an engine must have heavy duty everything to withstand turbo loads- why not just take that fortune now and buy a fast car that was made to go fast?

umm depends on how much boost you're running. My 03 vw passat has about 7 pounds of boost stock. Very low boost but its still a turbo :)
