Put a different turbo on that engine without doing any fuel mods(stock Ecu)?.disaster.

stock turbo maxes about 12 psi,but you are leaning towards putting on a different turbo with different specifications,and for that it is anyone's guess.
If you use a boost controller you may be able to run safely,but it all depends on what the turbo makes the engine want fuel wise,and for that you need to compensate.
So,just slappin on a turbo?..nope..need more parts..
