Hm, getting a floyd trem installed on a guitar is gonna cost you quite some money.
If your tuners are the problem, maybe get em replaced with some of those locking tuners?

Personally, I'd rather buy a new guitar rather than pay to have a floyd rose installed. Unless, of coarse, the guitar has some kind of sentimental value. If you go from having a standard tremolo on your guitar to floyd rose there's a lot of body work to be done. Not to mention setup cost, labor, and any additional parts that you'll be charged for.
