You will need a new manifold with a WG flange. This will replace your stock manifold with internal WG.

Are you going to run a dump tube or pipe it back into the exhaust?

you do relize, just to bolt on a T04 you need a..

turbo
after market manifold
ext wastegate
custom downpipe
custom IC piping (hopefully for a FMIC)
custom oil and water lines
custom turbo heat sheid

this doesn't include that you will need more fuel. a fuel pump possible 4 injectors. and with a full turbo a stand alone ECU is highly recommanded. (haltech etc) Also recommanded to have a newly rebuilt engine or new engine. as well as porting.

in summary. bolting on a 60-1 is not easy or cheap.
