Hey you got the same car as my girlfriend and I think its an F22 if I'm not mistaken. If you really want to boost it then you need atleast the basics. They include:
1) a turbo manifold- can get pricie
2) a used turbo with no shaft play- get it from ebay or junkyard
3) FMU- or some kind of fuel management
4) intercooler- to reduce intake temp. and chance of detonation
5) wastegate & blow off valve(BOV)- the wastegate can be usually found as an internal wastegate on most turbos you get from the junkyard and the BOV can be usually snagged from the same car you get the turbo from, they both release the pressure in the system
6) downpipe- this is the pipe that comes off the turbo and connects to the rest of your exhaust, you get fancy here or just take it to your local muffler shop and they will make one for you
7) OIL FEED AND RETURN LINES- very important because if you go cheap on either one of these you are going to kill your turbo, your motor, or both so get it done right
8) the best thing to use is www.homemadeturbo.com that site has everything you can image so use it religiously.
I hope this helps you out man because whens its all done a turbod car is the best.
