swap question

ok heres the deal. i have a s4 tII s5 turbowith a blown front housing. and i need a motor swap bad. im looking for a tII short block but for the prices im seeing i can get a whole swap for that. ive been pondering the swap of a s4 6 port for a couple of days.

my question is do you guys think i should do this and swap a turbo on it? i have a microtech waiting to be thrown on, or get a safc on the stock tII ecu. and with the low end for a daily driver and not risking breaking anything on the drivetrain, it sounds good.what do you guys think. im searching the forums but ive never heard of putting a 6 port into a tII. any suggestions would be helpful. im thinking of doing this in the next week or so.

thanx

I have a J-spec S5 turbo in my garage.
I ran good for a year while I rebuilt my origonal motor.
It starts & runs strong.

The ECU needs to match the front cover if you're using the MOP.
