Default Turbo kit out of evo viii for my b17

So my buddy just got done putting his new setup together for his evo viii. He got a new turbo, new wastegate, new front mount, new fuel pump, new ss oil lines and new injectors. He said he would sell all of his old stuff pretty cheap becuase he has no use for any of the parts anymore. My questions are with the turbo and the injectors. The turbo is in good shape and only has about 25,000 miles on it but is there a way to make it work in my car? I dont know what to look for when looking for exhaust manifolds. All I see is manifolds for t3/t4 turbos. what would this evo turbo considered and do they make manifolds that fit that kind of turbo on hondas? He said hes pretty sure its a 16g but not positive. Also could I make his stock 560cc injectors work in my b17? Thanks in advance

You would need a completely custom manifold and downpipe to make it work.

No this was a recent thread about a month or 2 old the guy was from across the pond UK i believe , he needed the manifold to tuck as tight to the motor as possible so the guy sent spooling his turbo and spoolin made a manifold to work with his setup and the turbo the customer provided . that to me shows awesome customer service and that a company is willing to help out the customer which is AWESOME in my book, so ill always recomend spoolin
