its not street legal to swap a different engine in any state, unless its a newer engine from the same model car. and as far as i have heard both turbos will not fit, but you can use one turbo.

ok kool thanks for the info guys. as far as the engine swap thing i know in oregon where im from you can swap engines as long as the engine came out of a newer vehicle and it was an engine that was released in the us. not sure about here in florida yet but i believe that is pretty much true anywhere but dont quote me on that but i do know that you can do that in oregon as long as itll pass smog
