Rep Power: 0 that turbo won't fit with the HKS manifold. Sorry man, thats what i had before i went with a garrett GT25. The wastegate actuator holder hits the fan, the air discharge is completely in the wrong place, and the exhaust housing is way to close to the a/c, almost no room for a downpipe bigger than 2". Your doing this very half *** aren't you?
no i just got the turbo for 75$ and i thought it would fit......ill just have to sell the turbo and go with a gt25 as well.... or i might go for a t3....i didnt spend alot on the turbo so im not worried

Well, I would go for this turbo. Clicky!
This is the one i'm using. It is a perfect fit, and alot better price than the HKS turbo. Also, I have a used GT17 turbo that i would sell for $200 + shipping. Its dual ball bearing, dual stage impeller. Let me know if your interested.

two questions
is there another bolt hole in the middle of the flange on the bottom of the lip, i only see 4 holes i think there should be 5 maybe
the exhaust flanges are opposite, the turbo exhaust flanges is going up and down, the manifold flange is going side to side, i dont see how this is going to work for fitment within a small engine bay

Rep Power: 0 that's what i was thinking
BMC racing too!!
i think if you know the turbo is good... keep it
sell the mani cause you should be able to get just about full price for it
since it just came out. and get a custom on made
i think the mani should fit the turbo
and not the turbo should fit the mani because you can't really custom a turbo
anyone disagree???
my mani is log stlye wit the flange at a 45 degree angle
and after bolting up the T3, rotating the housing
it ;s fine
