Default Exhaust wheel/housing difference

I have a turbo with a Stage 5 turbine wheel. I want to swap the exhaust housing to a T4 footprint. I found a P-trim housing and was wondering if they are close enough in size to use it with the Stage 5 wheel? I know I can get a new Stage 5 housing but don't have the cash to spend $200 + on one, I can get the P housing for $50.

The P trim wheel has larger dimensions than the Stage 5 turbine wheel by a bit (relatively speaking). Doing this is going to severely hurt performance of the unit. I wouldn't recommend it.
