What razorlab said. Call them and see if there is anything you can do to upgrade to the GTX. Most places don't charge restocking fess when exchanging items, especially when what you want costs a bit more.

Hopefully its the one Garret makes. They have a GTX3071r that bolts in just like an MHI 18k, so there is no sharp U-turn in the turbine housing like the ATP bolt in stuff. Or he is going with a t3 setup, who knows. Maybe he is just welding a gt3071 to the stock manifold... 
They are not the same as the Garrett designed turbine for the Evo-X ?

That's exactly what I'm going to do. I should've done more research!

GTX is just wheel design differences.

Ah, must have been the wrong picture that I saw. Must be nice having a X. Makes for solid bolt on turbo options with the stock housing style. The have 3582 and 3576 boltons too...

Evo 10 bolt on GT/X 3071/76R are 100% Garrett products.
As far as the "must be nice" comment, just remember it's a total pita to swap turbos on the 10 compared to the 8/9.

Ah, that sucks, the 3576 and 82 are great turbos.
I've done it on the X, it's not THAT bad, it's just more work. Not necessarily harder as long as you don't break any O2 housing bolts lol. I do have a lift though, which makes things easier.
OP, were you able to exchange/cancel/whatever your GT for a GTX series?

This honestly was a lot more fun to drive than my 9, we actually brought power down. Car could've made more had I gone bigger injectors, but this was on a completely stock long block so I wouldn't have pushed it much more anyways. Numbers were on a Dyno Dynamics, tuned at KTMotoring. I have a graph I'll try and post it to this thread.
