Default noob question Can i use a d series turbo kit on a b series motor?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but i was wondering i have a d16z6 in my car right now and would like to know if i got a turbo for it and then when this engine dies and i get a b18c motor can i just transfer most of it to that engine? or should i just forget the turbo for it and just buy the b18c and wait longer for turbo on the b18c ?

you will need a new manifold/downpipe. If you put the gsr in, you will also need new upper charge pipe.

So would it be a good idea to buy the turbo first then? also all the Fmu, Fuel Pump etc wouldnt have to be changed would they?

I believe Ive seen a b16 with a d16 turbo mani w/ bolt holes honed out and maybe a lil porting on the exhaust runners.
