OK Turbo experts, I need your help!

Is the hot side inlet different on a K26 944 turbo compared to a K27-7200 Turbo form a 930.

The reasion I asked is I have ordered a Turbonetics 60-1 using a T3 hot side which bolts up to the header inlet ok but will require a funny T3 flange out to the muffler.

Thus, I guess another way to ask this is:

is a T3 hot side inlet the same size as a K26 turbine inlet?

I am using this on a 91 C2 Turbo that comes stock w a K27-7200.

Thanks in advance.

I can only speak for a K27 7200 turbo and yes the flange is different and is bigger. It will require you modifying your crossover to make it fit on a 951. You will also need to modify the downpipe as well.

Thank you.

So the 930 style turbine inlet flange (K27) is larger than the 944T flange (K26).

It is for a 930 so I will stay with the T3 flange which is reputed to be a bolt up to a K27 hot flange (your cross over flange).

That should make sense cause the metal gasket is a 930 piece.

Wate a minite!

Are you saying that on a K26 turbo that the exaust to turbo gasket is a 930 part????

If so, they are the same flange???

Nope, what I am saying is a K27 7200 flange gasket is the same as a 930 turbo flange gasket as I used to run this turbo on my 968.
Sorry if I confused you.

That makes more sence.

The K27-7200 is for a 91-94 911 Turbo. Basicaly a 930.

Got my Turbnetics turbo to day but they sent me a standard bearing instead of a Ball Bearing turbo.

Crap, It took a week to get an order in as they no longer take direct orders and you have to find a dealer.

Then I was suposed to get it last week, now I get it an it is wrong.

Sorry for the vent and thanks for the Help.
