Putting a turbo on an N/A can be done, but it really is a lot of work. Most just buy a car with the turbo engine in the car. Don't let this discourage you though from making a swap, it is just that there are differences in the turbo and the N/A engine and not to mention extra sensors under the hood and modifications made to the oiling and cooling of the turbo itself.
The Turbo engines have 2 knock sensors on them to the N/A's 2. this helps control detonation much better. Usually the afm is different, the throttle linkages are different, stonger transmission and stronger clutch. See what I mean as the differences.
Let us know and good luck.
