Default Fitting the new turbo in...

quick question, im running a precision sc50 (.63 a/r 76-trim) right now, and i just ordered an sc61 (.63 a/r 52-trim) and with the sc50 i have the turbo mounted to the manifold with the compressor side on the left (inlet facing to the left) and its pretty damn close to the block.....Do you know if ill be able to run the SC61 the same way? is the compressor housing much larger than the SC50?? or will i have to run the compressor housing to the right side of the manifold (inlet facing to the right)...??? any ideas? thanks.

You will prob have to have the compressor on the drivers side. What manifold are you using? Do you plan to run a/c with this setup?

was that with an SC61?? what A/R ratio is the compressor housing? i dont think im gonna need to modify anything b/c i have about an inch of clearance so i shouldnt have a problem unless the SC61 housing is tremendously larger than the SC50.

The SC61 and the SC50 still sue the same T04E compressor housing so physically from the otuside, they will look the same.
