Van turbo question

Does a van turbo bolt right up or does it require a special adapter for items such as intake and exhaust?

Thanks Peter. I remember reading a lot about the van turbos but could not remember if it bolted up directly. I think my new project truck may need a turbo. Still trying to get to know her a little bit,

I love my van turbo. You don't want to run one without some tunes though.

Thats good information. I will stick with the orginal one or replacement truck turbo if it turns out I do need one. I am building fence on a deadline this weekend but once I get that done, I can take a look to see if the turbo is indeed bad.
