Don't remeber. Somebody should chime in, but I think the manifold would need to be modified?

He can't even spell Ecotec right, I'd be leary

I thought the manifold needed to be modified as well. There's a reason not many people use it, but I can't remember why. Search .net and you'll find an answer somewhere.

Buy cars used, Buy important parts new. That's an important part.

check the classifieds on here, there usually is some turbo parts for sale. Or look into a kit i know zzp sells one. but you'd have to find someone to tune your balt (which i think hp tuners now supports 07+ otherwise you'll have to go trifecta)

Yes it bolts up just fine no modifaction needed. I know most run the 03 Saab gasket which doesn't have air injection ports. Also the Garrett turbo is the low pressure version, the better turbo off that Saab is the Mitsubishi.
