Message: I don't think you can..I am no expert... But the research that I have done say no..You can't take a turbo off- like a Cummins and put it on a gas truck or car cuz you have higher compression in a Cummins...Like I said I am no expert.

Message: very doable depending on how familiar you are with turbos. A inline fuel pump, fmu,and ignition upgrade would be ghreat for it and might look into a mopar pcm

Message: Find out the psi boost the cummins produces and give consideration to NOT using a Mopar pcm as, to the best of my knowlege, power via the Mopar PCM is via timing advance-among other fuel mapping &tc. Boost in the 6-8 psi range is 'normal' without having to get really sophisticated with octane enhancement (over 91-92) or water injection &tc..
Timing advance is the LAST thing you want to do with a force-fed engine. Doing so will usually result in detonation and engine melt-down. Most engine management systems for supercharged engines (twin-screw, centrifugal belt-driven or exhaust gas driven [aka "turbo"]) require retarding the timing to prevent detonation.
Check out blower web sites for verification!!,...

Message: Absolutely not. The compressor map is totally different than the 5.2L...as well as the A/R. You'd be better off with either a T3, T3/T4 Hybrid, or properly matched T4.
