swapping a turbo motor into a non turbo sube

now bare with me here guys because as you can see im knew to this forum. i just started to get into the subaru thing and know nothing about them besides the fact that they have potential. i own a nissan with a sr20 swap, but want something that looks nicer and can possibly be faster since AWD is very good. Now my question relates to swapping a turbo Sube engine under the hood of a car that came non-turbo. Could it be done and howmuch work will it take? what is a recommened engine? where can i get a sube engine online? if you have an answer to these questinos, feel free to voice your input. thanks alot to everyone on this forum.

What type of subie will you be putting the engine into? The EJ20 (WRX) engine is probably the best engine to swap into most subaru models.
