Cheaper than what? Purchasing an n/a and then upgrading everything to TT? If so, then yep I agree 100%. In fact, it's even cheaper if you might go single turbo on the Supra someday, because you'll already have the header and the downpipe! Just be sure to confrim with the Aus. gov't that buying a TT and removing the turbos qualifies the car as non-turbo from their perspective.

The auto TT seems like a MUCH better deal than the n/a.

Why? What will be using your Supra for? If you'll be drag racing it, the auto is faster and more consistent...

The bad news is that a brand-name (eg. HKS) single turbo header and downpipe will cost about $2500 USD or so. I've heard you can get them on ebay but the quality is somewhat suspect...

No, it'd make the job easier. Converting to an exact oem TT stereo would be somewhat tedious - finding specific oem parts like wiring harnesses and oem subwoofer enclosures, etc. An aftermarket stereo usually bypasses some or all of the oem wiring, and the oem components are completely replaced.
