Default Will a VF37 go on a classic RA

As above. Have a classic RA with a VF24 on at the mo. Will a VF fit straight on without changing the downpipe etc or not?
Found this old thread but just want to check..

No, The VF37 is a twin scroll turbo, your car can only use single scroll turbos without modifying pretty much most of the engine (sump, manifold etc).
Look at something like a vf 34 or 35 (the 36 is also twin scroll) for a replacement if your after more power

It could be a vf34 and he cant read very well
You would have to ring him up, the vf37 isnt a roller bearing turbo (sleeve bearing) but the vf34 is
