Not nessesarily. With a L36 block, you are not able to pump as much boost through as you could with a L67 block. There for you are very limited with boost. Especially non ICed. Say you can only make 8lbs of boost safely. Well, normally the turbo kits sold are meant to make about 12lbs+ efficiently. You are now under the turbos effiecency, wasting potential, and will take forever to spool. Not to mention, you paid MORE for this.

A top swap is definatly the better bargain for a GT. Parts can be had for cheaper then the turbo kit and can be done in a weekend with a couple buddys, some stuffed crust pizza, and some beer.
