The engines are pretty much the same , right down to the piston squirters. The only difference is the higher compression in the NA motor , it's about 9:1 instead of 8:1 or so. That's why the Maxima engine swap is somewhat popular: higher compression , same durability. Find a wrecked turbo and yank: the ECU and wiring harness for it , the turbo setup with exhaust manis and all , and the MAF and injectors. Or all that stuff is easy enough to piece together. You should be able to build yourself a nice turbo car for much less than $500-$700 and a little time under the hood.
