As long as the wagon is also a 6 then the mechanical part of the swap is pretty straight forward.
you can even use the NA auto behind the Super6 if needed.
Most problems if any will be swapping over engine computers because i'm pretty sure in VT2-VY2 the engine and body computers are matched.
I did it years ago in my VS wagon but the engine computer was completely separate from body computer.

Bolts straight in. Cheapest way is hit up [email protected] for a vats free xu6 memcal for $60 or Nige for a nice touched up one a little more.

I'd fit smaller pulley and headers while it's out. (Can fit into bay with headers attached and hook sling to them)

Reuse your factory harness extending drivers side to reach all the plug (8 wires from memory)

Use the super 6 box has a higher flashing rate stall.

And you're done.
