you can turbo anything with the right money 
dunno whats involved BUT i can direct you to this months banzai magazine - they have a 2002 rolla hatch - thats had the 3sgte/gt4 running gear swapped into it from an St205
the thing looks Horn - aka neal bates rally car !
id LOVE to see toyota do this - and truely make a hot hatch similar to the Cosworth focus .. Looks pretty damn good too ! for a corolla !

That was a 7AFE. The 1ZZFE is a much nicer engine. I can't see why it wouldn't work

Umm how longs a piece of string? lol
Depends how much you can do yourself? The compression is quite high at 10:1 so you would want an intercooler (~$1000 with piping?), probably have to go aftermarket ECU (say $1500), then the turbo (T28? GT25 / GT30? say $2k new, or $1k secondhand?), bigger injectors? (do GZE's ones fit?)....turbo oil and coolant lines...and also turbo manifold (say $1300+ custom made or maybe $300 if you can make it yourself?).
lol don't look so cheap now eh? There is a lot to it and it all depends how much power you want out of it really, sorry I can't give you exact prices but you can guess that it won't be super cheap!
ps not trying to put you off! I think it would be great!
Some info on the 1ZZFE
Cheers

Hmm really is soo hard for me to judge..all depends..possibly 150kw at the wheels if done well? Maybe more like 125FWKW is a little more conservative? Still it would be very original and unique, I for one quite like the shape of the car

AVO in Melbourne do a full turbo kit for civics for about $5k I think, maybe it can be adapted to fit the corolla.
It includes exhaust manifold, turbo, intercooler, piping, piggyback fuel computer, etc.
Apparently it doubles the output of a 1.6 Vtec Civic at 6psi.
Good luck.

You are right Grega, Toyota did bring out a turbo 'rolla about 1 and a bit years ago. Limited Edition thing with each one being individually numbered. Nice little car.

My only guess would be that the 1zz might be a bit... (dare I say it in Toyota company??) fragile? As in alloy block, no doubt very light rods etc?

Yea I been in a TRD modified 2000 Rolla with Sportivo body kit or such(well its around 2000), its got a TRD badge in the engine bay and a nice turbo. Limited edition stickers everywhere. Runs 6 or 8psi (not sure) its got a sweet sound and looks amazing, and goes HARD! Lotsa fun.

I think Bliz in Jap came up with a kit for the MR2 Spyder, Not sure if it was a 1ZZ or a 2ZZ, it was in performance imports last year.

all-alloy doesn't necessarily equate to fragile.
have a look at the 1uz. All alloy, but from all reports is quite strong.

What you tossing over? You got a porn mag or something? Yeah this is the N/A car with the turbo timer!
Before you toss yourself to much more I would suggest speaking to the guys that did the work on the car! I spoke to them about this myself and that 47% increase is the real deal! Although it would of been cheaper to do a turbo conversion they said!

The quads had to have custom everything to make them fit! And then they had to make custom restrictors because there was waaay to much flow or something! Anyway I was told that the standard setup way to restrictive and the standard ecu belongs in the bin!
But the main cost was due to the weeks of work that went into making everything!
Anyway thats just what they said!

Lucid was right, inlet is at the front of the car, exhaust is on the same side as the firewall.
Piping would likely be a nightmare.
Not impossible, but not what I'd call easy.

Is the quad throttle and ECU kit available as a kit or do you have to get the stuff custom made again??
For all that it's worth.. the echo has the inlet at the front and the exhaust at the back and HKS didn't have a problem producing a turbo kit for it! Same with TRD with the TURBO Echo which once again Toyota Australia fails to bring in to Australia.... I can assure you guys that I would have bought one without a having a second thought! Even though I am spending big on the sprinter!! Importing one would be impossible would it not??

correct.
it has to have a different chassis to the type sold in australia.
hence why you can import turbo 2-seater 300zx's but not turbo 4-seater 300zx's (stupid importing laws.. if only they'd mass sell some of these high-powered cars in australia...)

TRD has made a supercharger kit for the 1ZZ-FE rolla. Has to be imported though. Costs around $5000+. Turbo kits are also available but not from TRD. There are plenty of ready made kits floating around in the US. You just gotta find them and have them shipped over.
