just strapping the turbo on won't quite work. you will need to replace the header (which is a good idea anyway with a 1zz), and of course the intercooler is a good idea, then you will want a chip, higher flow fuel pump, fuel injectors, throttle body, air intake, exhaust system, and high voltage ignition system. while the turbo itself is probably the single most expensive piece, and the header could fit into the turbo easily enough (maybe with a little fabrication), the other parts all add up in price, and it is known to have people turbo a 1zz motor.
if you do go through with this, be careful with the transmission. the automatic tranny hooked up to that motor is only good for about 200 horsepower otherwise it is liable to break on you. this could make for a great track car if you do get it set up.
