Thanks....Detroit is 600-700Ft above sea level. The temp on that day was around 70 degrees.

NOW!!!!!...I will say my car is on its fourth clutch (Stock/ACT/ACT/EXEDY) and has had the trans rebuilt by TRE and it only has 34K miles on it

AMS and Buschur don't run them so that was proof enough for me.

Have you tried this before?

I've had an IX and VIII turbo in my possession at the same time, side by side. It's quite apparent that the comp. housings wont swap. I attached a pic where you can see the difference.
