Default 1.6 turbo manifold on a 1.8?
Will it work?
From looking at some pictures, it looks to have the same flange. This will help save me some money if it works.

Let me know guys,
Thanks!

cylinder spacing is different, so port spacing is different, so flange is different, so...

nope.

if he gives it a go with a block shrinker it might work

just swage it out a little, and drill some more holes in the flange
