The cylinder walls in the 951 block are strengthened (thicker) compared to the 944 N/A block and the 951 uses an external oil cooler as opposed to the 944 N/A's oil/coolant heat exchanger which is integral to the 944 N/A engine block.
Overall, I would not recommend using an N/A block as the base for a turbo engine. I'm sure that with enough time and money it would be possible, but it would be easier and much cheaper to use a proper 951 block.
