There are too many things that would need changing over to make the mounting of a turbo reasonable costwise for your car, unless you had a junker turbo that you could pull parts out of. Even then the labor would be tremendous. Apart from the bare block, there is little between the two engines that is the same. A partial list: cylinder head, intake and exhaust manifold, cam, distributor, etc. etc. If you really want a turbo, find one you like and buy it. I would also suggest a later year to get the stronger five-speed. Oh, and if you actually do have a carburetor, you don't have an '85. Sorry.
