Who can measure a 993 Turbocharger inlet flange for me?
I'm trying to figure out what I've got here. Since 996TT's came out I've been under the impression that 993's and 996's had the same bolt pattern on the inlet flange but were different on the outlet.
Here's a shot of my 993 K16's inlet flange. Can anyone verify that this is correct and is indeed a 993 K16 turbine housing?
The 996 K16 I have here measures out in a symetric 70mm sided triangle bolt pattern.

That is a 993 K16 turbo pictured. The 996 triangle is symetrical. The outlet is also different between the two. They have the same bolt pattern but are clocked different.
If you have a good 996 K16 turbo and a bad 993 K16 turbo just swap the rotating assembly from one to the other. They are the same in that regard. Double check the compressor outlet though as I have seen some have a barbed outlet instead of a recess for the O ring. The compressor covers can also be swapped if that is the case as well.
