S to T or auto to 5 spd conversion?

I'm STILL looking for the right car -- 3 door turbo, preferably in a color I want (something on the dark end of the spectrum). While I've found a couple potential candidates it seems the car I want is either:
- a non-turbo, or
- a turbo w/ an automatic
My ultimate car would be a base model body (no sunroof), 5 spd w/ a turbo engine (w/ SPG trim if you must know...) so I've begun thinking about procuring a base model from the south/west (I'm in Mass.) and get it turbo'ed at some point. I've also found a number of turbo cars that happen to be autotragics. Oddly there is an ample supply of [seemingly] good condition convertibles for next to no money so the thought would be get an automatic 3 door turbo, a 5 spd convertible, swap 'em and sell the automatized convertible.
So which is less evil, automatic to 5 spd or n/a to turbo?
