Don't think it works as smoothly as that, unfortunately... wiring looms change between turbo and non-turbo models, and even between revisions of engines, so there are a lot of different plugs/sensors and what not. Radiators are different, intakes are different... much simpler to start with the complete package (i.e. a front cut) and go from there. Would need a matching rear diff as well, and brake/suspension upgrades are never a bad idea either.
