EVO 7-8 turbo on DSM motor

Maybe someone thought it was OT and moved it. Anyway, Adam from Z1, you say it doesn't fit, Tye from RRE says it does. I have a feeling the DSM manifold and the EVO 8 are the same bolt pattern to the head.

With that said, does anyone have firsthand knowledge of fit? Can someone compare gaskets or something?

Thanks again, sorry to repost. I can't see why this would be deleted it's an interesting query (at least to me)

The manifold bolts right up. The inlet to the turbo ends up smack against the alternator. So to make it work you have to loose the a/c and move the alternator to the other side. You will also have to fab custom 02. The evo one will hit the block or motor mount. i think you have to use a manifold spacer also.

If you are paying a fair amount for the EVO turbo. I would say it is not worth it.
