Turbocharger

Are the turbochargers interchangable between 03 thru 05?

You can put an 03 turbo w/ pedestal onto a later model. Lotta guys do this for the extra whistle.

I did that when my stock when went out and Bean had Matt's old turbo laying around with the pedestal. It's 7 bolts that you need to mess with to change it all out. 2 hrs work, not big deal at all.
