If you get the '90 manifold aswell as the turbo it'll fit.
The Series 5 turbos wont fit the Series 4 manifold but either manifold bolts upto the engine fine.

It'll work, but remember you HAVE to use a spacer, otherwise the turbo will hit the lower intake. I believe aaron made his from RB flanges, but I'm not positive.

It's a blank page.
And if you are talking about sig size, the image is 17K. Last time I checked, browsers downloaded the HTML page first, then the image in the background as you are reading the text. There are also a LOT of other people with significantly larger signatures then me.

Wouldn't it be better to just swap over the intake manifold too? Yeah, it'll cost a little extra but then you don't have to worry about that extra exhaust spacer ever leaking.

no the turbo inlet manifold DOES fit (so long as you swap the Whole thing..) , you just need to get out the grinder and do some port matching, if you compare the gaskets of the two you'll see exactly what i mean
