Default Do turbos basically sit in the same spot?

I searched around but couldn't come up with anything.
I have a b16 in my coupe and I'm purchasing a turbo kit off someone and would like to go a different manifold. It's an OBX manifold, I'm sure you know why i want to change that. But he has everything set up with that turbo (t3/t4) and it's a real cheap price so Im going to run with it.

My question is: I'm thinking of going blox manifold (I hear they are cheap and work well, such as their WG placement and /w lifetime warrenty! so why not?) Do all turbos sit in the same spot from different manifolds so I do not have to get new pipes and downpipe to adjust to a different turbo location? Or can you direct me to a manifold that's good and will bolt up to the turbo and still utilize my downpipe/turbo inlet IC pipe/and turbo intake.

I know my downpipe wouldn't be a big problem (I don't have AC anyways)
My problem is I'm sending money on pipes that might not even work because I'm going with a different manifold and the turbo might sit differently than it did with the old manifold that I wont want to purchase.

Thanks.

they basically are all generally gonna sit in the same spot reguadrding those two manifolds....with the blox it might sit up a little higher and in a little bit, but thats about the extent of it.
