doing that will totally void your 100k warranty.
if you want the extra power, you should trade your GS for a GT.

if you install a turbo on a car that didnt come with one, your 100,000 mile warrany will be null and void.
you would be WAY better off to trade your 4 cylinder car on a 6 cylinder car, and that way you 1)have the power, 2)have the warranty, 3)have the driveline designed for that amount of power.
you will probably end up breaking mulitple pieces of the driveline if you install a turbo.

i also agree with manybrews. There is more to putting a turbo on a car than just slapping it on there. I suggest you do a bit moer research first. I dont even think there is a company out there that is selling a kit for the 4g. The only place i know of that has a good selection on aftermarket is road race engineering

no turbo's out yet for the 4g. or atleast not by a trusted company... rippmods just came out with their s/c if your looking for a fix. you wont pass inspection and the dealer wont touch your car but hey, go for it. i suggest getting a new clutch first if your m/t because the stock one is known to slip w. just a pair of headers. with the s/c or turbo im sure it would burn up in no time at all.
