not worth fitting a turbo, as buy the sound of it your on a budget. and will cost u about 2k for a turbo to be fitted to a C20XE, if u want a turbo save for a C20Let work out cheaper in the end
C20XE go for 500
C20LET go for 1000
long run ......
C20XE = 500
turbo conv = 2k (easy)
total 2500 (and most are low PSI ones)
