    I was looking at another post, someone was selling their '04 TD04 from their WRX. So, if I decide to buy a turbo (for example vf30), can i just replace the old turbo? You guys think I would have to do anything else? I'm a n00b.

    you will also need the supporting mods to go along with it. You will need a new fuel pump, injectors, and some sort of engine management at the very least. This is also going under the assumtion that you already replaced your upipe and you have some sort of turbo back exhaust.
