The best way to do the conversion is to convert everything over to the Rampage, so a shop manual for both cars would be the most efficient way to do it. It will take the fuel system (fuel pumps and fuel lines are different between the two vehicles), exhaust should line up positionally but the diameter of the pipes may be different, and yes, the whole wiring harness for the engine bay, then verifying the connections line up for the bulkhead connection, sometimes these things change colors and locations, so it has to be verified. As far as everything bolting up and fitting, should not be an issue. Keep an eye on things like the heat shields, might need them from the Daytona to protect the surfaces.
Sounds like a fun project. I didn't do a turbo swap to get the information, I did a 95 Dakota 2.5 5spd to 3.9 5spd, but it is similar with fuel/exhaust/wiring/sheilds to make it all work, and the only fun part I could see with this swap would be getting to the intercooler stuff and fitting, but it shouldn't be too bad. Keep us informed of the project and how things are going, we can help with the individual things as they come up.
