If you only have just the turbo, then yes you would look to get alot of the turbo engine parts. If its a turbo kit with turbo for the b6 engine then you should be ok. $700 for a brand new VJ14 isnt a bad price. I have seen rebuilt ones and used ones for around 200-400.

you could put B6T turbo and manifolds onto a B6 w/o any fitment problem - the trick will be getting the car not to detonate under boost with the higher compression. you might have to adjust the wastesgate down a few lbs, and add a timing retard device from some aftermarket company like MSD.

Yes you can do that, but finding those parts and getting a used turbo for 700 he have better luck getting a used turbo engine for 700-900 with all the engine parts he needs.

I agree, but since he's in AU instead of the US, he might have a harder time finding a motor... after all the population of Los Angeles County is more than all of Australia, and finding parts there can be like looking for "rocking horse shit" (an aussie expression).
