Would a turbo unit from 2L-T unit fit and perform well on a 5L engine? Can I intercool it?

That because the 5L is not fitted with a factory turbo, so I am contemplating using the 2L-T turbo unit.

5L-E
The 5L-E 3.0 litre EFI diesel engine offers impressive maximum power (71Kw/4000rpm) and maximum torque (200Nm/2600rpm), combining high performance with low fuel consumption.

1KZ-TE
The 1KZ-TE 3.0 litre Turbo Diesel engine offers potent power (85kW/3600rpm) and torque (315Nm/2000rpm). It's the most powerful engine in the HiLux range, and the first electronically injected diesel engine in the one tonne 4x4 utility class.
