no, you can't just turn the turbo off, once its there, its there. if you tried to turn it off somehow I suspect it would do damage to the turbo, as they don't like to be oversped. you'll also need at least one new cooling fan (A/C fan) because the turbo fan is more slim and is closer to the radiator so it won't get cooked by the turbo. its really more work than it seems. but if you're up to the headaches of possible problems later, then go for it.
