NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the exhaust manifold wont match up from an ef or au to the ports of the ba head for starters, wouldnt be too hard to chase a standard ba turbo manifold or buying a decent snort set up

not really, the turbo manifold will need to be changed for one that suits the ba dohc, the pipework will need modifying to suit the ba, the intercooler can be made to fit as most e series intercoolers are just universal ones..
imo, probably best to start fresh or hunt down the factory ba turbo bits... |

I'll make it easy.
No. There is No EF/AU turbo setup. Buy a BA one.

snort performance do a universal kit, snort-performance-f68/snort-performance-stage-2-turbo-systems-ea-au-ba-fg-falcon-6-t92527.html
starting around $3000, be prepaired to spend minimum $5000+ all up |

While the port spacing is the same, the port shape is oval on the BARRA and round on the E Series.
This is why I can't use my Pacies off my EL donk on the BARRA when the conversion is done. Cheers BenJ

Depends on turbo kit ??
If it has genuine Garrett turbo, injectors, fuel pump etc... 90% of pipe work is done.. Changing exhaust manifold and on selling the e series.. Done...
