Jeff -
I guess I've been lucky in that regard. Most usually ask me if my car is a 5.0 when they see the GT markings. When I say that it is a Turbo GT, they automatically make the connection to the 2.3L engine.
I imagine that if I went to AutoZone or something, they'd be making the assumption that it's an SVO. I confess that I never knew about the Turbo GT until I looked at one when I was searching for a car to restore.
