it's possible to leave the engine in if you're not swapping internals and what not....  
the install will depend on the kit.  you'll have to tap the oil pan for the oil drain line, t- off from the oil pressure sensor, replace the header with the manifold, turbo, and downpipe, and install the IC and associated piping/ vacuum lines.  you'll also need to prep the fuel system to handle the turbo....
