Given the current value of these cars, it makes much more sense to sell what you have, and buy a factory equipped turbo car.

The value of your car will be pretty low because of the milage -- you'll probably get about $800.

You should have no problem finding a very well maintained turbo car for $2000.

You'll spend more than $1000 on a conversion, plus a ton of labor... and it still won't be right. So you're really better off with a car that was originally a turbo.

Just my 2 cents.. arguably worth that.
