all questions you should have asked before bidding on it.

It will work with your car, but sounds like you need to do some more research

You are under a binding contract, so you better pay this guy!!! I hate dead beat bidders, so you bought it, now pay for it. And yes it will work just fine, my brother has a similar turbo on his 87 mr2, it looks like his buick regal turbo. So bottom line is yes it will work just fine, and will be fun. Pay the man and call it a day!

you shouldnt have to ask if it will work.

you need to do research on anything you buy, before you buy it

$180 is a bit on the high side. I think of that turbo more of a junk yard find, I'd pay $50-75 if in working condition. It sure in hell cant make 40psi, and that does'nt look like a T4 compressor housing. Sure it will work with the HF mani, with the right adapter flange. Keep in mind those T3 done use a standard T3 flange.
