Personally, I would be interested in some details about the turbo "going out".
The transmission swap should not have been an attributor to the turbo failure.

I honestly don't know what happened to the turbo I'm not one to know much about that and I don't know to many shops around here that would be able to look into it. Some guy was telling me by converting the car I Pretty much F!#$ed Everything Up but others say it shouldn't be a problem that it might be a boost leak, ripped hose, worst case scenario that the turbo would need a rebuilt.

well if you took a non turbo motor and made it into a turbo (ed) motor then yea there is allot of things to do and do correctly. if you just "swapped" motors than its not so much labor intensive.
tell "some guy" to stfu.

erm. wost case scenario you have a catastrophic failure and your turbo explodes.
