FP Red with Garrett Housings ?

Hi,

Just need to know if its possible to swap them by any T3 Garrett turbine housing? In other words FP Red with T3 A/R .82 3" V band housing !

As I was told that the Red's "CHRA" is almost comparable to Garrett GT3076, so would it work with a GT3076 T3 housing?

Cheers

It will not work. 2 reasons

The FP Red is reverse rotation, while their are reverse rotation garret housings out there, I don't think any of them are T3 inlet flange.

The FP Red uses the Mitsu center housing which has a v-band turbine housing attachment where the Garrett has 6 bolts and some flanges to hold the housing to the CHRA.

No, the CHRA and turbine wheel are different and they are not compatible.
