correct, you'll be fine. you can fix ballance issues with suspension & alignment setup.
If your car oversteers a little more because you have more weight in the front you can fix it w/ setup. Not to mention most of the weight of most of the turbos I've seen would be between the axels.

This thread has been dead for a long time now, but I have a question. What is the best way to get to the SRS unit to remove it? I can't fit my hand where it needs to go to disconnect the wiring harness from the SRS unit.
