throttle body elbow will fit and is a good upgrade, as far as the turbo, keep the big16g for sure, the stock 2g turbo spools quick but thats about it haha it good for quick spool and low boost
 
so is that pretty much all i should take off the car? i mean the car is mint but the motor is in peices in the trunk....so i can get anything off it ,,what about the pistons i knwo they are beter then the 1g pistons and the head is alont beter too? its a 1998 tsi awd if that helps.

Grab the front calipers (remember to buy 11" front rotors too), exhaust manifold, o2 housing, MAS, and throttle body. There is probably more, I just can't think of it.

Hell, if you put it that way I'd be tempted to swap your 6 bolt into it. 98 tsi awd's aren't exactly easy to find in mint condition, let alone free! OMG
The pistons, eh, if you were already rebuilding your motor. The head IMO isn't worth swapping onto a 6 bolt, or vice versa. They both have their strong points.
 
well i would honestly sell the whole thing for about 500 ..trans works like new it only has about 94 000 kms on it so
