rb26 turbo on an sr???

i have a rb26dett turbo and am planning on swapping out for my t25 in its stead so i have two questions:

will the elbows off my t25 work

and ive never swapped turbos, so is it just straight forward or do i have to get new oil lines. i plan on getting ss oil lines. will the ones for a t28 work?

I know you didnt ask this, but thats not a good replacement. It is not going to make more power, and the ceramic turbi blades have a habit of breaking off

Wrong flange size. you'll need a t3 manifold, and probably the elbow too.. And ^ plus 1.

actually. the turbine blades are not made of ceramic. they are coverd with ceramic to dissipate heat better. and it is bolt up.
