Hi Sam do you have anymore pics of manifold with t25 flange on it? I'm fitting same turbo to a v2 manifold which is going on my ibiza.

All my photos can be found here.

Now if it was me I wouldn't be keen doing this with a v2 manifold, the v3 is so much stronger, thicker material, better welds and support braces.
You will also need to fabricate a turbo support bracket, badger 5 did mine but he said it wasn't to bad to do and still used the oem bracket.

I had that recently with the uni brace and it was stuck in a royal fail depot. It might be worth checking with your local depot first.

Good point, it would be worth a check at royal fail nearest to you also.

Hope you sort it Sam.

Looking forward to seeing what you make. Are you have launch control, full throttle shifts and all the goodies?
