Default I have an 04 s60 without a turbo. Performance upgrades?

My car has no get up and go because its a stock engine without a turbo or anything. I have about $500, I was looking to install a turbo and ram air for that much. I know the ram air is cheap but the turbo is what im worried about. I found one on ebay T3/T4 TURBO CHARGER VOLVO 240 244 S60 S80 T5 T6 V70 C70 | eBay
I was wondering if i bought that, would I need other upgrades in my engine to withstand the power? would I need a new manifold? how much would it cost for the dealer to install it? Im kind of new to this whole thing and honestly have no idea if i can just throw that turbo in or if i have to do a ton of other mods for it too work. Please help

You have a Non turbo S60 correct. If the answer is yes sell the car or just be happy with the way it is. No way it can be done .The way a Volvo works cant add a turbo to a Non turbo car,
