The turbo itself off of one of those cars would probably work, but you would need custom piping and inercooler to go with it; thus making it expensive. Supposedly these guys are back in business www.tmaturbo.com they are reasonably priced and do good work.

If you can weld, and are mechanically inclined you can do a turbo setup for 8000-1200$ using cheap parts.

If not your looking at 3grand on up.

+ you will need fuel injectors, tune, fuel pump, etc.
