My advice:  don't.
Two days is not nearly enough time to properly install and de-bug a =
turbo installation.  Two weeks may not be enough time unless the =
installers are experienced.
 If you're gonna' do it....do it right.  Thrashing under an unreasonable =
deadline is a sure way to screw something up.

  How hard is it to change the headgasket, put a turbo, and convert to =
digi
  1 on a 1.8 16v scirocco?  I have a place to do it with the tools to do =
it
  with.  I basically need a few pointers to speed things up.  I have a
  somewhat installation guide from ATP web site but its only a reference
  since its for installing a turbo into a 8v car.  I'm going to be using =
an
  g60 headgasket  with a new timing belt and seals. I have about two =
days
  to do this in a shop in mid February so I have to work fast.  I have a
  repair manual but its a little confusing on the timing belt removal.  =
Can
  someone give  me some advice.
