Single turbo manifold question

Hey just wanting to know i bought a new turbo for my car and the exhaust manifold hasnt got the two ports like whats on the manifold would it be ok to still put it on like that or should i get a new flange welded on to match the manifold so its the same, or could i cut the exhaust manifold split flange off and put on a single one that would match the turbo?

So your turbo is undivided and your manifold isnt?

yup thats right, would it be ok to still join them, would it change how the turbo boosts, or would it still be the same?

if I understand you, you are saying that the manifold is Divided (individual runners)(split) and the turbine is not (open valute)

if this is the case, just bolt the turbine on and of you go.

if it is the opposite, then you have several options, knife edge grind the dividing wall in the turbine to reduce frontal area, , or get a new manifold that is individual runner or "split"
