You need twin scroll sump maybe oil pick up pipe dipstick and tubing ,twin scroll equal length headers ,twin up pipe ,pipe work for turbo ie oil and coolant for VF36 or VF37 ,twin scroll down pipe because the flange pattern ie holes are in a different position to single scroll turbo and then get it remapped

Everything as said above. Your looking at around £2.5k + for the conversion and all fitting.

2500 is a bit steep and its all do able at home. granted the sump isnt easy but the rest aint to hard i got a turbo for 300 std headers up pipe and downpipe with sump and pick up for 350 you can just buy the flanges from ebay and get them welded on its just more involved

2.5k is because I don't have the space or storage to do any of it myself and is assuming top price paid for everything.
