Its only cheaper until repair costs come around. The 2.2L is a higher compression motor, slap on a turbo, your going to fry piston rings, as well as internal damage thats gonna cost more than the turbo setup. Forget the Nitrous, rebuild the internals, get a machine shop to make you a second head gasket to lower the compression, and you should be safe. Do a lot of homework, because expected numbers, and what you get are two different things. Plus once its Turbo, theres lots of tuning needed to run properly.

Good luck
