i like the idea of the Mitsubishi 20g turbo upgrade. I've already got a 19t fitted & don't want to take that off to get the new blades fitted, then get re-fitted
[LIST]
[*]having not messed with the turbo's before can a 16t be used & machined to get the 19t/20g wheels in or do they have bigger casings
[*]will the angled exhaust outlet of a 16t fit the 3" angled downpipe i've already got on my 19t
[*]final one. With my turbo being the pre-me7 can i use possibly an old 15g centre core with the coolant pipes arranged as mine are, with the 16t exhaust turbo side & the intended 16t/machined 20g inlet side

Didn't even realize about the seller, was just looking at 20g turbo. Don't know anything about it. Is it the exhaust flange that is different ?. I have a 16t and never had it off or looked at one so i ain't got a clue about way flange sits.
You could always get a conversion piece made up
Is this turbo much better than 19t ?

thats the plan (may not be done by Owens), but need to know if it can be based on a 16t as its hard to find a 19t these days

Just give your 19t to Turbo Technics along with about £300 and you will have what you want :)

thats the basic plan, but don't want to take my 19t off. So will they be able to do the same work to a 16t or is some of the casings different/bigger?

Yeah i want to know this aswell, was going to go down the route of 19t housing etc and get machined but this seems better. Anyone know where they are located ?

18/19t's have 360 degree thrust bearing mate so easiest is to take your 19t off.
