^ well i dont see how they would clearly make something that is not the same bolt pattern and pass it off as an RB20 elbow
However, yes they are SHITTY! My friend bought an XSpower manifold for his SR and one of the runners was not even welded on fully...there was a 1 inch gap where it was not filled in.

^ I remember reading your build thread and projectile vomiting when I saw that xs power manifold the first time. 
OT: It's probably an elbow for a Subaru WRX.

Real RB turbos use a 3 bolt charge outlet that a pipe bolts to
Here are RB20 & 25 turbo's
This is an RB20 turbo (on the left)
(RB20 on the Right)
RB20 on Right
You got jiped on that turbo, the Z31's turbo are smaller than an RB20 one.

yeah RB25 turbo is a good upgrade for a RB20.
If you are using the Stock RB20 manifold (or any T3 manifold) the RB25 turbo will bolt right up and the RB25 turbo comes with the the WG system on it and you can use that new turbo elbow you bought
