Default Bigger turbo on cast manifold?? No luck searching....

I'm wondering if anyone would happen to know what would be the biggest turbo that would fit on a revhard cast manifold. I'm thinking of going GT30R, but not sure if it will fit, or will the block need somemore trimming, seeing how it was trimmed allready to fit the T3/T04E. Thanks for any help.

Well from what i have red when using a cast manifold and trying to fit a larger turbo its better to have the 5-bolt assembly for clearance, i have heard that with the 4-bolt assembly you need to cut away at the block and such, but i am not sure if you really need to so much with the gt-30, i know i have red that for the gt-35 though, sorry i can be more helpful and that i write like a 5 year old

Which exhaust housing would I have to go with on atpturbo's page, I'm guessing the second one according to urbansi's post. Thanks for the help

Depends on whether you have the E/0.60AR or the S/0.70AR compressor cover. If you have an E cover then it's pretty much the same dimensions as the other T3/T04E's.

You could always flip the turbo around so the compressor is on the driver side. That way it would hang away from the block.
