The early STi days are long gone. Just shipping engines and doing a company sponsored swap is pretty much impossible these days. As soon as the manufacturer does it they need to meet all the regulations they would if they built it that way to start with.
No doubt they could sell kits if offered but it would be way more than $10K by the time they were done with you.
Wouldn't impact the Supra in the least though.
