You possibly could just transit at Bangkok when you arrive from KL, if you do not go through immigration at Bangkok you won't have to pay the PSC 500 bt, but to do this you would have to get air asia to Tag your bags all the way to ISTin KL, and then go to the transfer desk at Bangkok to get you Turkish Air boarding passes. The disadvantages by doing this IMO are.
1. You have a big chance to lose you luggage. And you won't know which carrier lost it.
2. You probably won't be able to make a seat request on your flight to Turkey.

But you might save 500bt.

Perhaps you could call Turkish Air and ask if they will let you re route your ticket KL- IST 'which would be much easier for you. Even if your ticket is covered with non reroute non this non that, they still might let you and it is free to ask.
