"Cheap" and "Turbo LS1" dont go together.

I'd honestly just save your money for awhile and read and research on here. When you start getting close to having enough money saved up for a kit, then search the for sale forums as there are always kits for sale on there.

Why would you want to go turbo when you already have a nitro methane breathing beast!

Hell, I'd buy one of yours in a heartbeat if I didn't already have one.

Finances, marriage, sanity, this FI'd LS1 **** has taken a toll on it all for me...

I also went the credit card route... Now I'm paying for it too. I only thank God my car is paid off or the decision to go turbo with little money would have been twice as dumb, as inconceivable as that may seem.

Brother, I look at the receipts and they don't make sense to me anymore.

Just get a supercharger. Theyre cheaper, easier to install and usually come in more complete kits than the turbo kits do.
