Yes, but there are other things like the Downpipe that you will need.
It will require alot of fabrication simply because the P5 parts never were made to match the MSP configuration.

good gawd.....
the manifold will bolt up to the head, but the stock turbo will not work with it. you will also need a new down pipe. if you mount up a new turbo using that manifold, you might be able to use the stock intercooler piping if the turbo is mounted in the same orientation.
other than that, it'll work great.

I've heard there are some issues w/ the quality of the OBX manifolds, but I have no real experience. They seem to be pretty nice looking though.

No it won't fit, the stock turbo is a T2 flange the manifold is a T3 flange or a T4 flange it can't be both. I hate how people sell things without know what they are selling.
