As I am not mechanically minded is it possible to change a ordinary 2.5 diesel engine and exchange it for a 2.5 turbo diesel engine.

As others have said, the exchange can probably be made, but other things have to be made with it. You might need to replace the entire computer, for example.
This sort of work needs to be done by qualified people with enough knowledge to get it right the first time.
A person who knows little about auto mechanics and electronics may have what is known as a basket case. Little bits left over, and no running car. The repair people usually have to charge more to get it running because they must take time to sort it all out.

You may need to change your engine control chip to get the air ratios and fuel delivery correct with the turbo. It will also require exhaust changes.

It is possible how ever there are some modifications that would need to be done. I would also check your DMV and see if the car would need to have a provision license on it do to the change. I doubt it would but it is possible it might.

Yes you can but if you are not mechanical minded , i would not advice it, there are other things that will have to be changed , I think you would be overwhelmed , and its very costly

yes as long as you can get all the right bits ie, the original pipe work and exhaust and you dont really have to swap them either, normally its usually just the head thats different
