Default b16 manifold and a prelude b20a5... compatible?

quick question, i have the chance to get a b16 turbo manifold for cheap but i was wondering, is it compatible with my 88 prelude b20a5? so basically, are the exhaust manifold studs in the same location? please lemme know, thanks in advance.

Hey friend, my buddy got a b18 gasket... the ports were close... but the bolt holes weren't even close to matching up.

I dont really see the point of 6k engine swaps into 3k cars. If your rich and love the car, thats great, do it, but a turbo b20 can put down a good 210 hp, thats not all that bad.

180whp from 5.5psi sucks. That is a 70whp gain from a non-intercooled 5.5psi turbo setup. That sucks??

The turbo goes on this weekend, and I'll race a 5th gen h22a and absolute rape the **** out of it.
