Sorry for the retarded question, but I have to post this for my retarded freind. He has a t3 turbine housing and a P-trim wheel for a t4 turbine, They company he ordered from sent the wrong one and he is on a time crunch I guess. So he's going to take it to the machine shop to get the wheel ground down a few mm so it will fit the housing. What will the downsides be to this?

He should get the housing cut out to match the wheel so that he doesn't destroy the aerodynamics of the wheel.

Dont do it. Get the housing to fit the wheel, not the wheel to fit the housing. If you do that you also messing up the balance of the wheel and shaft.

How could they modify the housing to fit the wheel?

well, they have to machine it out... which is very labor intensive and if done wrong... will totally **** up a turbine housing.... tell your buddy to wait for his housing.... trust me, you'll be better off in the end

Buy the turbine housing that goes with that wheel.

off topic. does the straight t67 come with a p trim wheel. also does the precision 63/t4 come with the same wheel (p trim)?

In most cases yes, but not always. it really depends what turbine wheel your dealer ordered. In some cases dealers dont even know.
