Help!Need more Power!

I've recently come to the conclusion that 2.3L engines have got loads of potential. How can I squeeze more juice out of my tired old '89 block? How difficult is it to install a Turbo? How much HP gains can I expect from (cheap) bolt-on parts?

hehe. I sorry man but the best you can look forward to is maybe 120hp.

And I suggest you DO NOT add a turbo to the n/a 2.3L block. You will blow the pistons and possibly crack the block. You could put a turbo on but it wouldn't be worth the money and effort. Get a 2.3 turbo engine. If you need more info just ask.
