My recommendation is to save your $ and wait. If you want one with turbos, start with that in the first place. The n/a swap has been tried hundreds of times, with mixed results. If your goal was a gutted back-halved trailered drag car, then maybe I'd say sure start with a high mileage n/a. Based on what you've said so far, I believe you wouldn't be at all happy with that - even after an engine swap. The n/a isn't really a "base model" - to me, it's a totally different vehicle except the not-really-all-that-light chassis. Calling it a base model makes it seem like it's the same except maybe power windows and a/c.

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?
