Default Turbo housing search continures

I received my turbo housing in the mail today, and it turns out it came off of a 13G turbo. I'm sure it would still fit my 15G turbo, but the outlet is only about 2 3/8" big, a little too small for my 3" DP. Are the exhaust outlets different from the 15G and 13G turbos? I assume that they would be, but if someone can clarify that would be great.

So if anyone has or knows where I can get a housing that will fit my 15G turbo and my 3" DP, please let me know.

THANKS

My understanding on the Mitsubishi turbo lines is that All the TD04HL have the same exhaust housing. The only difference from a 13G( I think it is in this family), 15G, 19T....etc, is the compressor wheel is slighty, slighty Larger, with match compressor housing.

the more I look at it, they kinda do look like the same size. I think the lighting is kind of messing with me. I'm going to go home tonight and see if it fits.

FALSE ALARM. I was under the impression that the larger flange DP was for the straight flange housing, when in acutality the the larger flange DP is for the angled housing. So the DP fits the housing and the installation should go as planned for this weekend....hopefully.

I would take it of your hands, then I could find the CHRA part of a 19T and stick it on my 745T. that would be freaking awesome. I believe the Conical housing turbos are direct dropins for the RWDs when reclocked.

No money right now...might be buying a some chassie braces for the 244T.

Alright, I can save it, and when you have money let me know. I'll give it to you for like 20 bucks plus shipping, or whatever. It doesn't really matter, I'm not going to use it.
