turbo swap question

yes i know you people are tired of reading these things ( please don't tell me to use the search cause i already have ) but im getting ready to do this already bought a (S4) TII engine with the turbo, trans, driveshaft, and flywheel. ok i know i need to get a couple more things such as the boost sensor, the ECU and the engine harness ( if anyone has one to sell or trade for something let me know ). i have a 86 gxl. so i do have the lsd and the 5 lug, 4 piston calipers disc brakes. i have read that the driveshaft will not mount to the n/a lsd. is there truth to this or is it assumptions. two more things is the boost sensor hard to install how many wires are there and is the ECU a straight replacement. im trying to guess how many days im going to be riding the motorcycle while doing this swap

Cool

ive done something similar to what you are doing and ran into a nice problem. Turbo driveshaft wont fit on n/a rearend. You either need a turbo rearend or custom driveshaft because they dont make u-joint for the driveshaft to switch the endpeice. I got my shaft cut and the end peice fitted on it and balnced for only 125$... cheaper than a new one even =P
