Who did you buy your car from? If you bored/stroked it to 2.0 I would guess you have thinner cylinder walls. Not sure why you would necessarily want to combine that with forced induction versus going all-motor.

Im sure he knew what he was talking about....He probably just wants you to get it installed in his shop. Big bucks there bro.

find out what exactly has been done to your engine. Also if your serious about going turbo, get a compression test to see if the seals are good. As for the price of a turbo kit, a good one goes between 3000-3500 plus installation
