Twin scroll turbo on single scroll manifold

I've had a look online. Mixed information but what I gathered if you run twin scroll turbo on single scroll manifold is it works, but you will probably develop cracks on the turbine housing, and you will be hindering flow. Very much non-ideal situation overall?

 

Could you not just buy a twin scroll gasket on a single scroll manifold ?

I would deff not run a twin scroll gasket on a single scroll manifold, I would also not advise running twin scroll turbo housing on single scroll manifold, they other way round is fine ;)

 

The divider on the housing and manifold becomes a hot spot and is prone to cracking, as for the gasket if it failed it would go through the turbo which isnt ideal :D
