I am not quite sure what you are asking. Is it possible for you to use some punctuation next time? Are you asking if it would be a wise choice to turbo your car? Or a wise choice to get a turbo out of a junkyard?

You wont find any bolt on turbos in the junk yard!
If you even find one , you'll still need to fabricate the rest of the assembly.
Their are bolt on turbo kits for the grand am, you just have to google it. Though most say "Not for street use" but who sees under your hood. lol Are pricey and require modificatoins to your car to get everything to fit and work properly.
I'd get a 62mm TB and some S&S headers & a DHP PCM! :ylsuper:
