Default first supra

ok so i'm looking at buying a my first supra. Although i'm most probably going to get a '95 or so tt next year i'm starting smaller for my first. I'm looking a older body style, like a '90 to '92 model, non-turbo. I'm wanting to get some info before i buy it because i'm wanting to build it up. I was wondering if they make turbo kits for it, i haven't found any but maybe i'm looking in the wrong places. I want to build it for about 600 or so horsepower, if thats possible on that model. i'm looking to build the block and head, but i was wondering if a turbo kit was sold for this model or one ahd to be built. or should i do somesort od swap? also the car is an automatic. i thank you guys in advance.

if your looking for 600hp on a NA motor you better off finding a turbo model..and if you did ur reseach you know the 7m-7mgte all have the Head gasket..if you type kwnate in search you will see his 845whp i think on a 7mgte its easier said then done

but go turbo righ away with the car unless u got money in the bank and can do a 1jz or 2jz swap right away

You would be much better off just finding a turbo model to start your work on. As of yet I havn't come accross a turbo kit for a n/a supra.
