Default Looking to add horses under the hood

Hi! before everybody gets on my case about my car I know that nobody likes it (epcept maybe me). I've got a 1993 Ford Escort LX and it's pretty much self-explainatory it's has a stock 88hp 1.9 liter SEFI engine. I'm looking for things to add more horses under the hood with out having to pay an arm and a leg. I'm thinking about a turbo but then again they cost an arm and a leg the "good" ones at least, I'd get one of them Turobonators but I've herd nothing but bad things about them. Any help would be appriciated.

You should be able to fine a cheap B6T from a 323 GTX (US) or better yet a BPT from a 323 GTR (everywhere besides the US)
