do some research, a quick cheap fix may end up costing you more in the end. Make sure you know what you are looking for, and learn a thing or two about shopping for used turbos (do a search of the forum here). You, your wallet and your car will be better off for having done so.

damn, your motor has 0 miles right now. it's better off if you drive it right now and break the motor in at the same time shop around. that way when you do get the turbo, you can just slap that baby right on.
