it will bolt on if you just spin it the tricky bit is getting every thing to fit around it like p/s pump alternator fuel lines oil breather pipes coolent pipes ect and then you have to relocate parts to fit on the manifold were there is no ferciity to bolt them.
as for spining the front housing on the turbo its just a case of re drilling the holes on the actuator bracket and cutting and welding the hard pipe that comes with the fmic.
hope this helps.

Some of you may remember me making the billet fire extingusher bracket that mounted on the front of my passenger seat.
Well at a Time Attack event a few weeks back i gave the bracket away to someone who needed it to pass scruteneering, i let em keep it.
So ive just made a new one, with a few nicer details, i'll fit it tomorrow.

Thread dates back to 2006 so some of the pictures are probably no longer hosted.
