Question twin turbo or N/A supras?

This mite be a re post so if it is I apologize I was thinking about it and what's so different from the "N/A" supra and the "twin turbo" once? I know the fact that the "twin turbo" has 2 turbos and they are 6sp or auto, but I mean can you make an "N/A" turbo? Like built the engine and put together a single turbo kit? Or can you just put together one with the stock engine? Do you have to swap the engine? Is it even worth it?

You can put a turbo on the N/A, but its not the same engine as the Turbo. (If im not mistaken the Turbo has bigger headers) You could swap the engines if you already have a N/A, but even then its not worth it, cuz the Turbo comes with other goodies such as better brakes and whatnot

Yeah, I believe different internals, pistons, etc. NA-T Mk4s will be fine, if you dont go all out heavy on them then they'll be fine, but I dont have any experience here and I havent researched them much.
