Default 2.2 Legacy engine with 2.0 turbo kit?

Hi, I was wondeirng if it was possible to mount the turbo kit from a 2.0 legacy and mount it on the 2.2 model?

If so does anyone know of any guides or build logs refering to it?

Is it worth the trouble, does the extra 200cc make alot of difference or should I just stick with the 2.2 engine and tune it a little from there?

I don't want much more than 200 bhp/200 ft/lbs of torque anyway since the engine is going into a 1968 VW Beetle!

Cheers

You would need a turbocharged engine, manifolds, looms, ECU, and fuel system.
