Not a direct swap.
The VF26 is sleeve bearing (rebuildable),while the VF27 is Ball Bearing.
The seating height of the VF27 compressor wheel is approx 1mm higher than the VF26.
So you will need to make up a 1 mm spacer so the VF26 compressor cover can sit on the VF27 core.
The turbine side is direct swap as they both use the the same 6200 mixed flow turbine wheel.
