Default Hybrid turbo. T3/26 (KKK K26+saab t3)??????

I have both of the turbos and dont want to use just the KKK K26 because I am afraid that the boost will be to high for me. I will be putting it on my stock d16z6 with the FMU for fuel management. And I think that the saab will be too small. So I thought why dont i just combine them. Well the compressor wheel on the exhause side of the KKK K26 turbo is too big for the exhaust housing of the saab turbo. So is there anyway that i can take the exhaust wheel off of the saab turbo and put it on the audi turbo so it will fit in the exhaust housing of the saab turbo? The reason that i want to do this instead of just the KKK K26 is because the saab has a wastegate and I would be able to lower the boost.

Won't work, the T3's -72 turbine wheel is smaller/different from the K26's, the only way to make it work would be if you kept the T3's hotside and run the K26's Coldside, but it'd require some major machining. Just run the K26 and get an external wastegate or go to a junkyard and get yourself and Audi external wastegate.
