How do you turbo an 87 5KSQ?

[David Marshall <david@volkswagen.org>]

I got my 87 5000S Quattro back from the body shop today.  It sure took them
a long time to get that front bumper in!

Anyhow, I'm not planning to put insurance on it until the fall as I have to
replace the fuel pump and the rear suspension bushings and rebuild the
power steering pump.

What is involved in installing a turbo engine into this car?  Do I need to
find another Turbo Quattro or would any car with a "MC" Turbo engine work
for the donar parts?  What is the aproximate prices of a MC engine and what
should I expenct to sell mine for?  

Compairing this engine swap to say installing a 2.0L engine into my
originally 1.6L Rabbit pickup how hard is the install?  Is it an all
weekend event or an all month event?

Thanks in advance!!!
