Yes, it will bolt right in. Are you doing a FULL conversion--drivetrain, ECU, etc.?

don't bother. you are going to be spending a few grand to get it going, not to mention alot of work, asuming you even know how.

You can't really just bolt the motor in and go. The turbo and NA drivetrains and electronics are VERY different.

the conversion is very easy to do if you use an aftermarket ecu like a Haltech E6K, that way you dont need any of the factory electronics associated with the T2, ie: loom, and all the gay emissions ****. can also ditch the GAY AFM at the same time.
