Turboing an 850? 850

Ok, maybe I ought to ask this over at Turbobricks, but...

What's involved in turboing an 850? I have a 1995 850, auto tranny, base model. It's a slug. No light-pressure turbo, just 5 cylinders and 4 gears of mush.

I have to do the exhaust manifold, engine mounts, and timing belt very soon, so I'll already have half the engine out.

So since I'm already junkyard diving for a manifold, I figured what the hey maybe I'll turbo the sucker if it doesn't look TOO insane.

So, thoughts? Suggestions? Flames because I'm crazy? Have at it!
