The bird will only absorb so much brine so I wouldn't worry about that. 2c salt for a quick brine, 1c salt if you have more time.
Whatever you put in the brine will add a hint of aroma to the turkey. You're not going to get a full ginger flavor of course. Put in whatever you like, make it uniquely yours.
