Yes, in fact, the entire rotating assembly (RA) is indentical for all the FC turbos.
The only difference is the turbine housings.

Word of warning:
The RA's are precision balanced.
If you take them apart, don't expect them to stay balanced, especially when mixing and matching parts.
An unbalanced RA is going to wobble itself to death.

If you have another stock turbo, I would recommend swapping just the turbine housings and oil drain tubes for less hassles.
If you're using an S5 turbo and the stock boost control, then you need the metal T pipes on the compressor housing also.
