It will cost close to $3000 to get a decent turbo set-up on any car. If you have 6 digits on the mileage, you have to get a leak down and compression test first to ensure that the motor can at least hold low boost (about 5psi). I know somebody on a different board who has an F22 turbo. He loves it!

Yes, generally low compression motors are great for turbocharging. Mod wise, I say get a high flow catalytic converter and a minimum of 2.25 inch exhaust pipe diameter. This will allow for better exahsut flow therefore spooling the turbo quicker. It makes so much of a difference. Other than that, running low boost is not as complicated. A boost dependent FMU will work for fuel enrichment at boost. i also advice to get your injectors cleaned or enlarged to at least a 310 prelude injectors or any aftermarket brands.
