Well long story short is I got ripped off and someone sold me a N/A 7 Bolt motor on craigslist. He said it was a stripped down Turbo engine. So I get it home do some research and find it is a N/A Engine. Now I have read multiple articles but the best decription for the swap is:
The 4G63 NT Engine, and How to make a turbo kit for it!

Now in this article I noticed that it didn't mention anything about needing to have a turbo oil pan for your oil return line from your turbo. Also I didn't see anything mentioned about the throttle body. So one of my biggest questions is can i just bolt my Turbo throttle body from my old 2G motor and get my oil pan for the return line. And is there anything else I might need that was missed in the article. I am stuck with this motor so I might as well try to make it turbo. I just need some help on what all I might need to complete this.
Here are parts I have off my old turbo motor and already on my turbo eclipse:

Turbo ECU
Wire Harness
Turbo with all Lines still on it
Exhaust Manifold
Turbo Intake Manifold
2G Turbo Intake with MAF Sensor
Intercooler With Piping and 1G BOV
Stock 2G Turbo Fuel Pump

Now I know I will need a complete fuel rail as well as fuel injectors. Plus I read I will need the knock sensor from a turbo engine. Plus I read that I should also install some Turbo Pistons. Now is this all I will need? Or am I missing anything? Any help would greatly be appreciated. I promise I have read every article out there about this task and even read the reasons why not to do it. But I am going to do it I just want it done right so I can have my daily driver back running. Thanks in advance!

Moderator If you could please delete this thread. No need to answer I found it all on the Thread started from the article. Thanks Anyways!
 
i didn't really see anything in there about the valves. When i swapped my cylinder head out for a n/a one i didn't know that the valves will "melt" or so my machine shop said happened. It only took about 300 miles and i had no compression at all. Had to replace all my valves with turbo valves....hope that helps some.
