Yes, the only difference between n/a and turbo is the exhaust sleeve. Its easy to get out if you have access to a welder. Just weld a bead onto the roll pin on the side of the rotor housing, and grab the weld bead with pliers and pull out. It wont stick to or damage the aluminum. Then just put your turbo sleeve in the n/a housing with new roll pins.

Not quite right. The N/A housings have the diffusers, but the turbo housings have the open water jacket to allow coolant to the turbo via the LIM. You can use a N/A housing in the front without much issue as long as the turbo exhaust sleeve is installed. Using the N/A on the rear is more tricky if you are running the stock turbo, as you will need to do some machining to allow the o-ring to sit between the housing and LIM. Here is a housing identification FAQ we put together. http://www.banzai-racing.com/faq_housings_ID.htm
