Your ZS190 is about $760 to $850.

Turbo on a Vader is doable considering the simplicity of a turbo and how they work. Issue is going to be tuning. You don't have fuel injection so you'll have to figure out the jetting.

ZS190 is a LOT more durable than the 125cc (stock) and for the cost of a 140, 150, etc... just hold out and save a bit more.

As franque mentioned before... Turbos generate a LOT of heat. You're going to increase the temp of engine with no real way to increase the cooling.

Assuming you can weld, fabricating the piping wouldn't be too bad... but you still have to figure out mounting location and everything else.

If you NEED more power than the ZS190 can push out...

Do the ZS190 swap. Use the Daytona 4V head. Get the bore kit to make it 212cc. Run a bigger carb.

Whole point of the ZS190 is that you get a bigger engine and you get a 5-speed instead of 4 speed.
