Yep, don't do it. You could try, but don't count on your engine to handle it. NA internals are not the same as turbo internals, you would have to change those over, as well as the ECU and wiring harness more than likely.

I put in a new crank, forged pistons, upgraded cams, new springs in the heads, cleaned and polished, bigger throttle body, 420cc injectors, ECU remapped, 3067r turbo, turbo oil pan, turbo upgrade chip, eibach springs, upgraded shocks and new struts, brembo brakes, may change to six piston 240 brakes, 18 inch TSW Valencia wheels, new rubber, dual friction completion street clutch, intercooler, 3 inch exhaust, aluminum radiator, and now she is getting a fresh paint job and slight interior restoration. New Rack and pinion and slave cylinder. Main fresh carpets. I will upload a picture when it is done.
