*IF* you didn't use the turbo much, and kept the boost low, you *might* get away with it. But Toyota figured that in "normal" use, the pistons would get too hot w/o the extra oil, etc. Then you have to figure out how to oil the turbo itself, and your NA compression ratio is really too high.
Look up the yield strength of alum. alloys and notice how fast it drops vs temp. Around 350-400 deg. F it's HALF of what it is at room temp. Why destroy a good NA engine? Sell your car and buy a REAL turbo car.
