"Especially the turbo gasket being metal, depending on condition is very reusable"

No they are not. Why don't you read the TSRM before you start making things up.

"My family owns a machine shop, thus rendering that cost useless."

Oh thats right, everyone owns a machine shop so no one has to pay for machine work. Plus normal machine work only costs $100 anyways. I had extra work done which came to $200. That still leaves $500 in PARTS not $350. Oh wait, you reuse all the gaskets, yeah thats smart.

Have you replaced a head gasket on a turbo 87-92 supra before? I didn't think so.

No professional automotive technician reuses any gasket. In the automotive field we call people who do that Hacks.
