1g-gte ct12 exhaust blades

Hello, I'm from the states and new to the forum. But there was a discussion that was raised about 1g-gte ct12 exhaust blades fitting inside a ct12a exhaust housing (the stock 1JZ twins).
Though ct12's are metal blades. shaft diameter of ct12 and ct12a are the same. if you slap in a ct12 into a ct12a, you don't have ceramic fins busting up all over the place, and you can boost higher. and it spools up around the same point as each other (ct12 turbine is smaller, so less mass to push, whereas ct12a turbine is larger, but less mass to push due to ceramics)
Does anyone know anything about this? I tried finding an earlier discussion that your forum might have had before, but didnt seem to find anything, thats why I am asking. Someone also told me to come to this forum, because it is a normal thing to be seen on the forums of a conversion like this. And if it is possible, could you boost more, how much? and would it be easy to do? Thank you very much.

Yeah thats what people are telling me, that it's from the Startlet. But the housings need to be enlarged, how do you go about doing something like that? I was also told that the twins with steels in them would become greatly in-efficient. But I dont understand, because there have been people in the past boosting farther than 14.5 psi or 1 bar max (which is at the point where your suppose to blow the shit out of turbos) and have made more power. I dont know, if I can have someone elses info on this it would be great.
