But the entire assembly is interchangeable.

2260 was a direct replacement for my 2012 with a 2056.

That is the same turbo by the looks of it. It looks like a 2256 has been modified to fit a billet 11-blade 60mm compressor wheel.

Looks can be deceiving. For one thing, that isn't the hot side showing in the photo. The internal bore of the gtb2056 is smaller than the gtb2260 hot side.

I think the gtb2260vk and gtb2265vk do share the same exhaust housing and exhaust turbine.
