Not to be blunt but your screwed...
The BEST way to have a turbo installed is installed by a professional unless you know exactly what your doing. Consequences of improper install could lead to many more thousands of dollars invested to get it running correctly.
You can't tune it either so don't kid yourself. You'll need an experienced tuner to handle the task as well as a place with a dynometer along with proper monitors.
If your 16 and working at mcdonald's and in HS (assuming), I think you just save. More likly then not, at age 16 you already have a s2k, you don't need a turbo with 350hp at that age.
Again, sorry to be blunt but save your money because you would be taking short cuts and thats no good with a turbo plus your prob to young for that much power (no offense again).
