Although as I said, you *could* bolt on the manifolds, turbo and wiring 
from a 10vt, you'd be better off using the turbo block, too, for the oil 
squirters.

Hahahahaha... Sorry, I couldn't help it.  There have never really been 
any aftermarket goodies for the n/a 10v.  Callaway made a turbo kit - 
about 20 years ago (or longer).  None of them seem to be around any 
more.  So unless you count a K & N filter (I don't), s/s cat back 
systems, or "fancy" plug wires (I don't...), there isn't anything you 
can buy for your motor that isn't basically stock.  Oh, I guess I forgot 
a camshaft; don't know if Blau. still sells theirs, but Elgin probably 
can make something.

I'd stick with your idea of a turbo motor swap and work towards that if 
you want any really noticeable power increase.
