Default Evo 8 turbo

there is this setup that i might get, here are some picture of what it looks like






my questions are:
1) what else do i need to fully piece the turbo together to fit on my b16a2?
(the motor is in a eg hatch)
2) how easy is it to cut off the flanges on that turbo and put b series flanges on?
3) where can i find those b series flanges?
4) will that mani fit with the B series?

thanks in advance

You need alot of stuff still, intercooler, chargepiping, couplers, clamps, bov, injectors, some sort of engine management, oil lines.

No that manifold will not fit a B series.

You do not want to cut anything off of the turbo. leave the flanges on the turbo.

Buy a new manifold that is made specifically for this turbo to a bseries.

Actually if I remember correctly you can modify the bolt holes/minor portmatching to make it work... although I may be thinking on a nissan SR20det manifold...

Check for shaftplay and get a writen statement that the turbo didn't smoke, or you'll get compensation. There's three reasons you'll find a stock evo turbo for sale: 1) they totalled the evo, 2) they decided they didn't want meth+porting/clipping to hit 400whp+ and decided on a bigger snail, 3) the turbo is junk.

40k miles on a smallish turbo on a car that is easy to beat doesn't bode well for the oil seals. It may be possible to cut that mani's flange off and change to a b-series flange, but those crossover tubes will be a problemm at least for cutting. A large (or portable) bandsaw would be your best option. Otherwise the other issues can be fixed easy.

A bit OT, but how laggy is this turbo? lets say on some average 2l engine?
