why spend more money then you have to? and your casual phrase of "im just gonna switch it over." Isn't so casual once you start to do it. Will probably end up being more expensive then just buying a turbo car flat out.
but to answere your question about exhaust, check the faq there is a great thread about non turbo mk3 exhausts started by Mrnickleye

well the money isnt an issue and ive got some buddies that work on supras and come across those motors pretty cheaply.
but okay thanks man.

naw im just saying why buy a non turbo motor first then buy a turbo motor second. just buy it all the first time around and save your self some money. but if its not an issue, buy the turbo anyway and send the money you save to me! im looking to rebuild and upgrade my ct-26 to a 57 trim here in the next month. you can pay pal it to me at jc198511@yahoo.com

cheers!

Well, I'd start with upgrades you can still use when if you do swap a GTE in: Fuel, suspension, cooling, brakes, wheels. Then, if you decide to stay N/A worry about building the engine up.... it'll give you time to decide.
