you can get a 5 bolt housing for one at an extra cost... almost any turbo can come with a 5 bolt housing

almost all the SC series turbos from precision come with or have the optional 5-bolt housing.

phoenix turbo has the option on their site to UPGRADE to a 5 bolt housing. (kind of ironic, since 5 bolt is the old style)

Why a 5 bolt? Alot of HT user like the v-band design/ 4 bolt design.

well i know i run a 5-bolt because it has more block clearance with a log mani, mounted ac style. a 4-bolt housing would require alot more block shaving, kinda scary IMO.
