ok i searched and as usual found nothing useful (i hate search)\
well i have a 94 lumina euro 3.1, i was thinking of taking the minfolds, x-over, turbo, downpie off of a TGP and putting it on the lumi.
my question is what parts do i need exactly, will my stock pcm work or do i need the TGP one, if there any wireing im gonna need to do, and is it just better to swap the whole engine out of the TGP

i know enough about engines to do this myself, but just need some advice, tips, ect.

Once you do the swap, you'll still have problems with the tranny not being strong enough.  If I were gonna do it myself, I would do exactly what was done to my Lumina.  Take a complete Turbo 3.1 engine and TGP tranny and bolt them in in place of the Vin T 3.1/stock tranny.

Just my opinion though.
