is it worth it? i mean im getting a 7mgte with a 5 speed swap sooner or later, but right now this is all i have to mess with, so would it take allot to put a small turbo on there? i know intercooler, headgasket, etc.. but how much would i be looking at in the end?
making my stock 7mge turbo?

Its not worth it, you will end up spending more to convert your NA to a turbo than you will to swap a complete setup. The high compression pistons in the NA will make it a head gasket eater. Trust me i have contemplated doing this several times and its just not worth all the work and effort. Not to mention you will probably get rod knock soon afterward as well which would be a wonderful ending to a bank draining project.
