Default From what I have heard, the STI turbo spins backwards.

Which would mean the blades face the other direction and wont work in any other turbo.

Default That's the Evo turbo, not the STi

The Evo has a reverse twin scroll 16G
The STi has a VF39.

I don't think the flanges are the same, but a normal 16G would be a very good turbo on a 1.8-2.0 stock motor.
