T04 compressor housing bolt pattern the same as T3?
Here's my delima. I am trying to piece together a turbo kit for my B18B. I have an old T04 housing lying around collecting dust. I also have a stock turbo off a 88 RX7. What I need is a manifold. I believe that I can make an adapter plate for the RX7 turbo to a T04 housing. Most manifolds that I have looked into for the B18B bolt up to T3 turbo housings. I would like to get a manifold for a T3 allowing me to upgrade in the future to a custom T3 turbo setup, the T04 is too big...at least for my application. I am trying to decide if i can make an adapter for a T3 manifold to the RX7 turbo. I have never dealt with T3's in the past and don't know much about them or the manifold bolt patterns. So how similar are the T3 and T04 manifold bolt patterns?

I think the was going by your title...you asked about a compressor housing but I think you are asking about the turbine housing (the hot side).
If you're asking if a T4 will bolt up to a T3 manifold and vice versa, then no, the flanges are different.

Man, I can never get that stuff right. Mainly my interest is how similar that the turbine housings are bacause I have a RX7 TII turbo that had a similar turbine housing to a T04. If the T3 turbine housing is similar in length and width (not too much smaller) to the T04 then I could make an adapter for the RX7 TII turbo to T3 housing.
