I looked into doing this when I destroyed the engine in my car earlier this year.
I ended up going for the FS-ZE out of the JDM Familia due to cost of everything involved in turboing your car.
Is your car a 1.6, a 1.8 or 2.0 as there are quite a few subtle differences between the three.
I would say that $10k-$15k would be your budget to turbo your car properly.
But being in melbourne I dont think your are allowed to fit a turbo to your car if it wasn't a manufacturers option and you cant use after market ecus?
Some one will corrrect me on this if im wrong

Here in Qld almost anything goes.
