I turboed a 2000 S-10 pickup a few years ago, totally home brewed, and it turned out exellent (per my realistic expectations). At the time, there was NOTHING available for turboing this truck. Don't scrimp on a decent used turbo though. I bet I had 5 used turbos pass through my hands before I found one that I was confident in, which was a Garret T-25.
Don't disable your car by getting it in some state of disassembly, then losing interest in the project. From your sig it looks like you have a pretty nice Corolla, so that probably won't happen anyway. My S-10 was my daily-driver at the time, and everything was planned, built, and fitted while I was driving it daily. When installation day came, it was done in about 6 hours. Best advice I can give is to become intimately familiar with your engine bay. Might want to break your manifold (and other) bolts loose and apply anti-sieze compound to them so you minimize installation day surprizes.
