With all respect for you, try searching, as there are quite a few threads that already cover this, including a pretty recent one.

The short version:

1. The only bolt-on boost available at this time is the blitz supercharger. $3400 new, $200-2500 used from time to time.

2. All turbo kits will require tuning. You will need a tuning shop, a good one, with a dyno near you to successfully do a turbo kit. $1500 and up depending on parts and how much you do yourself.
