It is so much more than the oil pan, the 7MGE was not designed to handle turbo. Why should Toyota spend extra money making engines that will never need the extra? The following is my quick guess

computer
need the turbo with all connections
bearings
the compression is different, so the rings are wrong, add head and valves.
oh the exhaust, there is a size difference right?
You would have to overhaul the engine to bring up to specs. Is the engine blocks different? Then the transmission, differential are wrong.

Of course you can do the job on the cheap but my guess is the engine would not have a long life expectantly. Then there is the question, what will fail first? Then there is the question of your safety and those around your racing.

Look be safe and do not do STUPID things! If you want to drift do it in a car that can take the beating! You do not want your last words to be "hey guys, look at this!!"
