Would it be possible to install an IS38 turbo on 2.0 TSI CULA
I know the current turbo is smaller and the wrong way round (Garrett MGT 1752S)
I would need a downpipe and intake and a remap anything else?

What about coolant and oil lines to the turbo? I'd guess they would also be in a different location.
I've seen some mention of IS38 swaps on a few US sites, but it doesn't look like anyone has documented it fully.

1752S easily put out 260 HP with remap.

Would a hybrid turbo be a better option?
