Default 2JZ GTE block question

I have a question, got a 2GS and been wanting to go turbo like many others. I don't have the time to build a block and would love to if i had the free time. With that being said, considering how Toyota still sells brand new 2JZ-GTE shortblocks pre-assembled I figured that makes the most sense. WIth that being said I wanted to know do all the NA 2JZ-VVTI accesories (alternator/ac compressor/etc) do all of those things bolt right up to a 2JZGTE block? also I was thinking running a NA 2JZ VVTI head would be easy considering there's plenty here in the states, but in the past i had saw a few youtube videos of people having to drill in cam sensor bungs into the NA VVTI head, is that only needed when you are trying to run the stock ECU? or is there any way around that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just want a reliable 500-600whp, maybe throw some mild cams in, decent turbo, injectors, intercooler, aftermarket ecu and call it a day. Just want some clarification on those things, thanks in advance!
