The question you are asking is like asking "Which came first? The chicken or the egg?"
Not enough information to answer this question. You should read the Forced Induction FAQs.

Have you done any research into assembling a turbo application?
What turbo?
Stock bottom end?
What horsepower are you looking for?
Do you plan on buying quality parts or the cheapest things you can find?

x2 question is very broad...what exactly are your goals, and with exactly what specs? like just stock internals or...etc.

you really don't need that much power to make these cars fast i would worry about hooking up once you get the the setup on there.

"Hooking up"? They don't make that kind of power unless built and even then they probably won' be streetable. Definitely think about changing out the clutch. Even a small turbo and "mild" boost will cause the clutch to slip.
