Your better off putting in a st185 or st205 3sgte, it will be a lot cheaper. There have been many people that have turboed n/a car rebuilding the engines and all, but you end up paying more money than you would using a turbo engine with the same power figures.
Everyone goes through the stage of thinking about Turboing there n/a car, then realise there wasting there money and just get a turbo engine because its more cost effective.
You start ringing around car performance shops and get prices and i guarantee you youll be paying atleast $5000 in parts alone for turboing the 3sge. A halfcut for a st185 3sgte is about $2500, no screwing around with custom manifolds and sumps and head porting, pistons, computers etc etc
Whats your budget?
Im sure the Toymods community can give you further Insight, which is actually coming from someone who has been through the Process and not about info someones brothers, uncles, mothers son was saying.
Goodluck in your Project  .
