Nope, the manifold the oem twins mount on doesn't fit the 2jz-ge head. In theory I guess it's possible with a ton of custom fab work (weeks and weeks, and thousands of dollars - really!), but it definitely isn't practical.

Your only practical options are:
1) Sell your n/a and get a true Mkiv TT (this is by far your best option, since you get all the braking power, suspension, and bulletproof drivetrain of the TT - not just the turbos).
2) Put a complete n/a-T kit on your n/a (which upgrades your turbos, your fuel system, head gasket, head studs, and your ignition). After that, you'll have to figure out how to upgrade your braking system (calipers&rotors, bmc, abs system, etc), suspension, transmission and and differential...when all priced out with labor will cost you more than the difference between a used TT and a used n/a.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
