Default Saab 9-3 se td04

I'm sure this has been answered before, but I can only find info about the garret turbos.
So, I have the turbo off the car listed above. What i need to know is if this turbo is as good a fit for a bp4w as i think it will be. my goals are about 200 ftlbs and I honestly don't care where the hp number lands. Currently in the process of installing a ms3 with ms3x into the car with sequential fuel and spark via toyota cops. I have the whole saab, so would it make sense to try and use the inter cooler as well (it is apparently the same ic as the viggen)? The plan for the manifold is just one of the bpracing branded cast manifolds on ebay like this one (https://www.ebay.com/itm/cast-iron-t...o/113805480909).Also, what do i need to be looking for in terms of down pipe, oil, and water lines. I dont care if the dp matches up to any stock locations, i have a shop that can fill out the rest of the exhaust for me. I am assuming a 2.5 in dp and exhaust will be fine for my goals. Please correct if wrong.

You said, turbo is td04 and linked to an ebay T25 manifold?

Kraken makes td04 manifolds with matching downpipes.

If I'm not mistaken it has a t2 flange, not the subie flange

I'm not familiar with Saab turbos, so if it has a t25 flange, carry on. I'll let more experienced members chime in

If you look at the ebay link you sent, the t25 flange is off a little. I'm not sure how/if you could seal that. I ordered one of those a year ago and it had that and I didn't really want to continue with that manifold, so I never used it.
