Remember for the swap many things are different such as:
Bottom end (additional oil squirters in DET block)
DET brakes are bigger
LSD (if you don't have already)
Engine management
heaps of other little things too I'm sure
Just the exhaust??? Not a clever move.
The DET has additional lubrication systems in the bottom end to cope with the strains of forced induction, not safe with DE block. Could work, could not.
Your stock management will run the car like a pig too, get a daughterboard or aftermarklet computer.
LSD is optional but highly recommended.
Brakes will neccessary to make it safe. Imagine enjoying your new power hammering it when you have to brake suddenly from a speed you would not have been able to get up to before (acceleration wise), stepping on the brake and the car not slowing in a way to match the performance of the engine.
The standard Qs brakes are already crap too.
Think about this stuff very carefully.
