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.

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
