Ok, i can do it....but do i want to do it? I can start right now and by christmas end up with all the little extras.....but is it worth it? I mean it's just an ST, but how badass would it be to have a 200hp ST? I think it'd be sweet specialy with a 5-speed. What kind of turbo's should I look at? Aint no thing to get it in my car cause i have a garage to work at. But should I even think about doing it? better yet is it truelly possible to just get the turbo in a running for 2000 or less. I'm not talking about the controlers and timers and injectors...those come for christmas. So let me know what you guys think. Anyone wanna help lol?

Get the swap because if you turbo the 7A-FE you will have to rebuild your motor top to bottom with stronger parts unless you want to throw a rod.
