Nope, it won't work. The manifold will not bolt up to our engine. The only part that you would be able to use here is the turbo itself. Then you would have to buy a custom manifold, fuel pressure regulator, fuel pump, piping, intercooler (if boosting past 5-6 psi), many custom fittings, custom downpipe, gauges, a blow off valve, a vc1 (or equivilant for cars older than 1995), and all fuel/vacuum lines.

You need to go read the "Things We've Seen Before" section and other archived threads to learn about turboing our cars. Since you are new to the turbo scene, I would STRONGLY recommend just breaking down and buying a kit. You can save some money by doing a custom job, but you sure as hell better know yer stuff before you do it or I guarentee you will break yer motor.
