Well yes, but there will be no connections for the water cooling that the S2 turbo have. But people have have done it so I would say yes.

As long as you have oil feed to the turbo it will be ok, but I would no drive it without water imo

use the s2 turbo on the s1 and dont worry about the water feeds
use the s1 turbo on the s2 and block up the water feeds on the pipes

my s1 uses a s2 water cooled turbo but the water isnt conected
my frst uses a water cooled turbo the same as above

I got a Series 1 engine in my Series 2 car, no problems running without a watercooled turbo! Keeps the water temp cooler
