I dont have the answer to hand but if you look back at your last thread about the conversion, breath, there was a detailed response about the clutch types being different.
so, no is the short answer although Im prepared to be put in my place by someone more knowledgable

Wouldnt it be cheaper to buy a turbo model instead of converting? There is not only the engine but drive train and braking system to consider. There are still some good quality used turbo models around
