Message Notice how the 4 holes for the turbo-->manifold flange is already tapped, and that you cannot slide a nut underneath the flange in hopes of having it bolt to the manifold studs. Those are Garrett's "compact" housings, which are not compatible with most T2 setups.

I bought a set of GT2860-5's(2860RS) and they have the exact same turbine housings as you. I was forced to pay $400.00 to get a set of conventional turbine housings that will bolt up to the manifold. These housings do not have the cast wastegate divider like yours (and my original turbine housings) have.

I guess you could just get a set of manifolds made that will allow you to use bolts that can screw into the turbine housings if you want to keep them.
