hx-40 swap no good!!!!

I goofed around and made a t-3 to t-4 adapter and made a down pipe. Many of you had told me the the 18cm housing was no good. And you are very right. LAG PIG.

I called piers to hunt down a housing and was told that if I had the 18cm housing with a t-4 flange the turbo was no good. This cant be true. If anyone out there knows a thing or two about the hx-40 please give me some insight.

The ID tag on the turbo is missing so I will look for some other numbers to post up.

And again if anyone has a 16cm housing for the hx-40 please shoot me a PM. I need the truck to be going next week, worst case senario I will look for a hx35-40 or just a hx35.
