You would have to really jerry rig it to bet anything accomplished. I would suggest fabbing up an adapter similar to this one.

I am setting mine up similar to this one, but I will be using drive pressure instead.

that looks pretty good!... just looking back at the video, he had a second dashpot and spring setup which enabled using it as an exhaust brake... which is really nice... it doesn't *look* like this setup will have the braking feature

what I like about using one of these is you eliminate both the wastegate and the engine brake... you actually simplify things with it

search different sites like cummins forum and compitition diesel they have threads on this turbo and if you just have the waste gate to activate it it will not have the exhaust break also when you let off the gas the turbo will bark a lot of people use a double acting air cylender and i think put boost on one side a drive preasure on the other. i'm new to this to so don't quote me on all this but this is what i have gotten from what i have learned
