That is an EXTREMLY broad question.
NA-T is a very well thought out process, and if done right, will be very reliable and rewarding.
Buying a 7mgte and putting it in is a bit risky in my opinion becuase your unaware of the condition of the engine. But if you have money, buy a spare engine, rebuild it and then put it in.
But this is one of those things,
If you have to ask, then you should stay Non-turbo.
And anyways, why do you want turbo? NA have plenty of power. If you havn't done your research to answer this question, you should not go turbo yet.
I am not flaming you, jsut letting you knwo you should definatly start reading!

Are U Here 2 take My Baby
Search and price match is all i can tell you, but from what ive put together there really close in price
In my experience N/A->T is generally more expensive in the long run, when you take into account time, money and aggravation.
Getting N/A->T to run right, although not overly difficult, can be a time consuming and frustrating process.
Also, as you move up to higher and higher horsepower goals, it gets more difficult with N/A->T the higher you go.
Swapping in a 7M-GTE with wiring harness & ECU is a cakewalk.

Alright so without being redirected to another link, from those with experience, how much did your n/a to gte swap cost you?
ehhh
I would put in a 7mgte.
7mge has higher compression= not good for a Turbo'd motor
also 7mgte has oil squirters in the block... 7mge's dont

Have you asked any of your friends if maybe they would like to buy your car? Then you can take the money you were going to put into a swap and buy a turbo'd supra. Just my two cents worth since I don't know how much a swap would cost you...........GL
Cost depends on if your going Bone stock, or modding it, or WHO your getting your parts from, anywhere between 500-1000 to na-t your 7mge
