I don't think there's any type of turbo kit pre-made, so you'd have to fab something up yourself.
The 5.0 isn't really known as a powerful truck engine, especially when adding larger tires, and also depending on gearing.
Some ideas that probably wouldn't be as expensive as custom fabbing a turbo setup, in order of difficulty/expense:
-The "sixlitre" tune up: ignition upgrade and timing bump (no 56K) - FSB Forums
-Long tube headers and either a single 3" or true dual 2.25" exhaust
-Swap gears for something numerically higher. You should have a sticker on your door jamb that will list an axle code, which will tell us what gears you have now. The 5.0 needs to rev to make power. Tire size will play an important part in what gearing you decide on.
-Swap the heads for some GT40 heads

You could try the E303 Cam, it's about $300. If you want Turbo / super charger, you can try something like this.

But with the kind of money you'd be spending. You might be better off with this.

I'm no turbo expert by any means, but you'd have to fab up hot pipes (from the manifolds or headers to the turbo), then piping from the turbo to the intake. Then there's the issue of what turbo to use.... no idea how one even figures that out. You'd have to swap to larger injectors at some point, depending on how many lbs of boost the turbo adds, and also have the PCM tuned to run the whole thing.
