Default Twin scroll turbo on single scroll manifold

Using a Twin scroll turbo on single scroll manifold it would become more laggy but would there be any other issues? I would not think so but maybe i am missing something?

It just functions like a normal turbo as far as I can tell

It will work, but obviously you've got the horrible piece in the middle that will give some serious turbulance issues.
What turbo is it? You'd be best of getting a divided manifold, or swapping to a normal single scroll housing.

basically its a evo TD05 and i want to fit it to a 20v turbo engine but i dont want the hassle to making a twinscroll manifold if a singlescroll will work as its easier for me to do.
