Honda makes a Turbo jetski. Very fun to ride, but the lag is apparent. You could probably get away with a T-25 from a DSM, that would be one cheap option. Garett sells small turbos for motorcylces if a T-25 is too big, but they are expensive and high quality. What displacement is this jetski?

Find yourself a wrecked Hyabusa (shouldn't be too hard) and adapt the whole engine and turbo setup to your jet ski!
I would also suggest fabbing up some kind of outriggers!
