you would need all harness's , ecu and any supporting electrics, it would fit but its cheaper to sell on and buy a turbo car as there is so many things your car will not have

a short engine's not enough for the conversion - you need the whole thing and the turbo, intercooler, exhaust, wiring loom, ECU, brakes etc. Like steve says, would be cheaper to buy a new car

Shawn - since you are up North, give Scooby Clinic http://www.scoobyclinic.com/ a go. They are very helpful, know their stuff, and don't charge a fortune for their work.
