Should I NA-T for free?
Friend is upgrading his supra TT to a single setup. He's got all the stock SMIC and piping. He's gonna kick me down the manifold, turbos and piping. Can I just get away with an S-AFC and a fuel pump? Tried searchin' but found too much junk.

yeah, sure. Turboing a car for free is always a good idea. 
but good luck making the exhaust manifold fit -- it's got a different stud pattern.
The stock GE injectors are too small as well.
the TT supra has a different intake manifold setup, so the stock SMIC piping would only be partially useful -- you've have to rig up the cold side piping.
So really, the only partially useful piece would be the SMIC, and for a reasonable amount of money you can get a nice FMIC off of ebay.

Since your're getting it free, you will be able to save some money and sell the parts you cannot use. You can re-use the SMIC and a lot of the original piping, so get it. I'm using the smic piping with my DaveH kit

Remember its not just the stud pattern either... the GTE exhaust ports use the rounded square design while the GE uses circular.
Yeah and as you said, the stock injectors would run out of room after 375-400bhp
Dont forget the GE motor runs a 10:1 CR and the stock turbos would kill your motor by running stock boost

blind them with science bean, or just say "it physically won't fit"
