What is the difference?

I'm looking to buy my friends turbo II motor after I find a vert FC, and I was wondering whats the difference between turbo II internals and N/A internals, because if I find one that is already running I wanna know would it be easier to just put the turbo parts on the N/A motor than to do an entire motor swap?

It is a shitload of work to swap the turbo parts onto an NA. You have to get a spacer for the turbo and custom fab many parts. There are links as to specifics in the FAQs.
Just swap in the whole drivetrain, it is far easier.

Read through the faqs, its all in there. Also, check out the tech section of www.rotaryresurrection.com and www.aaroncake.net
And yes, you can use the NA tranny, but its not recommended since its a weaker tranny.
