Not sure. But why dont you want to rebuild your turbo? cheaper and you get a brand new turbo!

One of the turbines blade bent up a little and the inlet got scratch from turbine hitting it... So it's probably gonna be a pretty expensive rebuild

I would say so. I thought you blew a seal or something.

Yep this is all you need to do. I did the same when my greddy turbo went bad. Cut off the greddy dp flange, welded on a new one for the garrett turbo. Pretty simple.

EDIT: My old for sale ad, which a pic of the downpipe.
