The 10v turbo cars from 1989 1/2 thru 91 use the later two piece exhaust
manifold.....  The 20v turbo motor uses a totally different two piece app,
that does NOT interchange with the 10v turbo (and nor does the N/A non turbo
2 piece manifold).  There are in fact a few pieces total to that 2 piece
manifold, you have 2 actual manifolds, a pipe connecting the two and two
clamps holding the pipe to the manifolds.  Extrude hone the manifolds, and
you have the best available flow next to a set of custom headers....
