I have did it and only thing i run into was the exhaust manifold was mounting the turbo in wrong place but we made it work. The E7 will have a 5 " exhaust. The clutch will be pull on both engines.The power steering pump may be located on the front instead the rear of the comp but that is ok to.

The turbo had to hav the exhaust moved down some and the air to air piping altered some.The mounts was same and the pulley came out in same place.
