First of all, WHY?

Second of all, are you swapping transmission back or engine as well? Transmission back, everything is a bolt on change. You'll need all the hardware/accessories that go with whatever you're changing.

If you have both cars, you should have no problems. Yes, you do need to swap the crossmember. Don't forget the radiator, as the turbo is a dual core, na is single.

Chuck is 100% correct, however it should be noted that I and several other NA2T guys have ran the NA radiator with no problems. I'm still a shortwhile from having my intercooler installed, so it will be interesting to see the cooling difference. However, It would be advisable to eventually swap to the dual core.

if you have the dual core do it... My single def. lacks.
