I know they don't make a lot of parts for the humble camry. but do they make turbochargers for camry? if not, can you use any other car's turbocharger for it? note that i'm new in the toyota racing thing so please don't be harsh on me if this is a stupid question

yes, a turbocharger is a universal application. its finding all the other parts that are not universal that is the problem. you would be best off going to a shop and seeing how much they could fabricate parts for you, like the exhaust manifold and whatnot. anyway, many people are working on turbocharging their 5sfe's (your engine). a few kits are even out there, one from burien toyota.

also another note- if there are any problems with the car, fix them now, because a turbo will just make them worse.
