Not even close. The HKS manifold only works with a full TO4 turbo, and it moves the turbo up and forward, necessitating a new downpipe, oil/water lines, etc.

The only thing a hybrid turbo will bolt to is a stock exhaust manifold. With an '89-91 manifold and turbine housing, and a ported wastegate, you should have decent boost control.
