Got a t2 for engine swap

Ok, i found this guy with an 88 t2 and a few nice little mods, but they nailed him in the back and the insurance branded it total loss because the hatch was all the way in the center console, but, the engine is in perfect condition, so is tranny, exhaust is messed up, so is everything else, but i wanna do the whole engine swap into my 86 na, i was thinkning before about doing a na engine to t2, but i'd rather just throw in a t2 engine and tranny instead of doing all the mods (im a little lazy) so i bought it for 1500. I think its not back, the car was running pretty sweet, he had bigger injectors and turbo xs bovs, all included, but the car is destroyeD. You'd have to be really good at body work to fix it, and id rather just throw it in mine. Any suggestions, is it easy, does it fight right into the mounts?

and btw, after the turbo swap, about how much psi will i be boosting? Im thinking i might go bigger than stock because i want to max out the hp. What are some price ranges for upgrading the turbos? What are some power ranges?
