unless it something special, you should just be able to unbolt it and swap it into the new one, keep all the stuff attached to the compressor side of the turbo, the exhaust housing comes right off and will go into the new one you have, of course thats assuming its the proper housing. other then that it should be like 6 bolts, a couple half moon bolt guides and your done.

You shouldn't.

And if you do end up changing the exhasut wheels, you can't do it at your house.

Jarrod is right. Swapping the wheels is something else. Technically, swapping the wheels will require the whole assembly to be balanced. That is what those grinds are for on the center bolts....... I'm deployed bro. I wont be back for a few more weeks....
