umm.......I'm pretty sure that you need a wheel that would fit the .63 turbine housing. A wheel for a .48 is going to be alot smaller than a .63 turbine wheel so I'm not sure how well that is going to work.

I assume that redline201 is referring to the Garrett Ballistics Concepts T3/T04E which has a Stage III turbine. SO he will be able to swap to either a Turbonetics or Garrett .63 A/R turbine housing as long as it is machined for a Stage III. All of teh New Garrett Ballistic Concepts T3 turbine housings are Stage III.
