I searched and couldn't find anything to disprove my question, but nothing to prove it either so help would be apreciated.

I just got my brand new evo III big 16G turbo :7 . though i would have preferred a t3/t4, i know this is a good turbo. the question i have is can a HRC downpipe fit on my turbine? i know the manifold wont work since the HRC has a garret style flange, but is the turbine outlet bolt pattern the same?

if not, then i will most likely go with a custom tubular mani and custom dp, but that will get expensive very fast, and i dont have a welder so i cant do it myself (though i wish i could).

thanks and sorry the long post.

If you have the turbno in hand I'm sure you could look at your DP and see for yourself? :shrug

No, that won't fit a hrc downpipe, you will need to clock that turbo so the oil drain is pointed down, then make your new downpipe. Don't foreget to buy a 'j' pipe for the compressor.

thanks for clearing that up. i knew about having to get a j pipe, but not about having to turn the turbo. thanks.
