why out of the car after only 8k?

my motor has 120k on it now, leaking oil from every possible place, thinking of just swapping a 2.5 motor in instead of rebuilding the 2.0

is it the stock turbo (i think VF39) that comes with it?

And how long would the install take? And sorry for the edits but one more question - what else would I need to make this work? I have a V1 accessport stage 2. Do I need to replace this or does it come with its own ECU?

I'm seriously considering this. Thanks Paul.
