"Budget" usually means custom, which means you build it yourself by piecing it together. Most people will go to a junkyard and pull a DSM turbo and try to find an intercooler. You'll have to fab up (or have fabbed) a custom manifold and downpipe and then find all of your charge and intercooler piping. It's a scavenger hunt but you could save thousands if you are handy. They are building kits over at
Home Made Turbo all the time for less than a grand.
The thing is though, there is a learning curve and if you don't know about turbos, that curve can be really expensive in terms of blown motors. So...
