my advise, don't turbo you car, was one of the most regretable things I have done, I know a few others who fell the same after doing it.

wiso are you serious?why do you regret doing it SO much?i've had mine swapped for a while now and i dont regret it.i mean i've had a few bad thoughts about, but over all at the end of the day i'm pretty happy with it. the only regret i really have was spending that amount of money on an old car...i really enjoy my 162 thou and my motor was about to give up soon. (290,000kms and burning oil like no tomorrow.)
so yeah, the money factor is the only thing i have regrets about. Also wiso u used the 4wd box and a gen1 3sgte. thats prolly why you regret it. ideally i would have used a gen2/3 3sgte and an mr2 box.i kind of regret not using an mr2 box, i most likely will end up putting one in later thou.
And about the alternator, your wrong. the alternator is in a different location on the mr2's. its above the powersteering pump area on an sw20 mr2. u have to use the alternator bracket off ur 3sge, there are holes on the 3sgte mr2 block already lined up.
