AMS gt3076r Turbo help?

So im a newbie to EvoM, so forgive me if I break any thread rules or anything like that.

Now thats out of the way, onto my questions:

I bought a bone stock (with the exception of a megan turboback) evo 8 as a project car. I have been collecting parts for several months to do a good build and im trying to decide if the AMS gt3076r turbo will be a good choice for my build.

right now my parts list is as follows:
Buschur FMIC (race core)
Buschur UICP
Buschur LICP
Tial 44mm BOV
255 fuel pump
1000cc injectors
Works exhale DP
Works Exhale 02 Housing
mini battery kit
AEM serial gauge
Forge manual boost controller
4WS mona Lisa manifold
Car has a shep stage 1 trans with stock t-case.

My biggest question is: will this turbo bolt up easily, without a ton of fabrication or modification? I have an offer to get The AMS kit with exhaust manifold, wastegate and DP (all from AMS)

Any input would be appreciated.

If you want my AMS gt3076r with less than 10k miles on it shoot me an offer. I'm going bigger and am wanting to get rid of this.

my biggest concern was if it would work with my works Exhale 02 housing/dp.. from what ive read, this is a great direct bolt on and should have no problems.

also, anything else i should add to this build? Feel like i have everything covered.

this kit doesnt have the 02 housing, i believe it was sold seperately. thats where my concern was with the 02. would the works exhale 02 work? or would i have to buy another 02 seperate?
