anyone done a 16vT swap

Hello all,
I am curious whether anyone has ever tried to run a 16 valve turbo motor in their 99. Obviously if you wanted to swap and rewire everything in the car you could run an APC and the fancy electronics of the newer injection systems. I was really curious if anyone has made it work with CIS. The main issues I can think of are turbo control and ignition systems. What do the 16V swappers do about ignition on a N/A car? I am not really familiar with the electronic controls of the newer cars. Can the turbo's be run with a straight vaccuum line to the waste gate or is there much more to it? Is there anything else that might be a problem. Fuel is another issue but my Volvo dist. should flow enough for over 200hp.
I dont really need a new motor at the moment considering I spent ridiculous amounts of money getting my B-motor going. I am just thinking towards the future when my motor dies (it only has 30K miles so it will be a while). Any input is appreciated.
