None, both use T3 flanges.

What lag? What spec engine?

As above, both housings need rotating, and the compressor housing just clear's the manifold. You might have to make up an actuator bracket.

Sometimes you have to file a little bit off the compressor housing to clear the turbo manifold, but it's not rocket science
