Yes you can. It might not be the most efficent setup but it can be done.

As Ninja said, its not very efficient. The center division on the turbine housing causes turbulence which slows spool and lowers horsepower potential. The only times you should do this are when running a quick-spool valve, or unless its necessary (bought the turbo before the manifold).

You can change the housing. They are around $200 if you look for them. Make sure you get one for a gt30.

Whats a "very good" deal? You may pay more in the end after you swap the housing. Not all T3 housings are the same, there are different variants. Swapping the housing is easy, you just remove the six bolts and two clamps on the backside.

Also depends on your down pipe. There are several options for how the housing connects to down pipe.

So what is your opinion of these "quick spool valves"? Seems like a big BW efr devided housing turbo on an open manifold would give quick spool and good top end. Am I missing something?
