lay out and center punch the location you want the holes in then use a center drill to get it started. Use a pilot drill that is substantially smaller than the final diameter to go through first, then step up to the final size so it has to take less of a chip at a time. try grinding less of an angle on the drill points so there is more material behind the cutting edge and wont round off as easy. once you have a pilot hole the flatter the better.
when all that doesnt work you could make an adapter out of milder steel plate that has the manifold pattern and the new turbo pattern, as long as the bolt holes do not intersect.
