    how hard would it be to 'transplant' a turbo?

    I see tons of turbo cars with low miles that have been wrecked (no engine damage)
    aka, lots of 7M-GTE supras < $1000. would it be possible to buy one of these, dump $500 into it for some piping, and have the turbo work correctly?:confused:

    edit: I guess you'd atleast need a new forged turbo header, piping.. but what else
