You would be better off getting an earlier engine with a purely mechanical pump and no key pad. I don't see to many problems fitting a turbo engine except that the exhaust is probably different. You will only need two connections, one to the fuel solonoid and one to the TDC sensor. You will also need a bonnet liner with provision for air intake to the intercooler.

What is the problem with your existing engine?
