As far as I know there is one kit available at http://www.1300cc.com but I wouldn't recommend looking at it seriously. It comes with a new intake manifold, fuel rails, throttle bodies, etc. which is all stuff you don't need. Yet it doesn't come with a turbocharger, intercooler piping, exhaust manifold, intercooler, etc. which is what you do need...I don't understand why the designer took this "kit" in the direction that he did.
So basically, no turbo-NA kits exist yet. I say yet because I am in the very early stages of getting together a truly bolt on (one day installation) kit. Don't expect it any time soon, and don't expect it to cost $500 either.
Until then I would suggest taking a look at the FAQ in the 2nd gen forum and searching for the HUGE amount of information that is available on the subject. Then decide for yourself if your skill level is up to taking this on.
If you are serious about doing this and have money in hand and are willing to put down a deposit of 50%, then PM me and we'll talk.
