The turbo head has a ceramic coating on the exhaust ports to handle the added heat, but will bolt right on to your na. Then all you have to worry about is the transmission, clutch, breaks and front suspension. There are reasons a turbo is a turbo and an n/a isnt. The best hing you could do would be sell the n/a and buy a turbo. (just my opinon) Or rebuild the n/a as an n/a.
