looking to switch turbo

I just recieved a hta 35r brand new, but now im looking to switch the turbo im leaning towards is Artisians EVO X Street Assassin 50 Turbo. But the problem is i dont know if it will be a simple bolt on with a few modification or not. I have all the supporting mods i just want to know what parts i need to bolt a turbo meant for the X into my VIII.

The upgraded X turbo you listed won't fit on an 8 or 9 without heavy modification.

As Testudo said, wont fit. Buy a BBK, Green, or something similar, those are the closest things to the Artisan 50 turbo.

yeah im just looking for quicker spool, but maybe I should keep the hta 35r now that I found out the new corvette zr1 is making 529 to 540 at the wheels stock.
