So heres the situation. Im 18 years old, and my parents came up on a 1995 toyota celica gt. Its got 176k on the body and only 60k on a swapped 5sfe. Ive been reading alot about this car to try and learn the basics and what not, but i cant seem to get this down. I would LOVE to turbo my car considering the engine doesnt have many miles on it, but im not sure how to considering i have the tighest budget that can be. Can anyone help me here, im just a young one wanting to have a fast car like the big boys ha

Yea, a good advice for your situation is keep the motor healthy, changle oil every 2500 miles, do maintenance and save up money till you have enough to turbo the Celica the right way. Don't go cheap or cut corners.
