I've tried searching for the answers but just can't seem to find them, though i know they exist.

1. Whats the external diameter of the plenum inlet/turbo outlet, ie for intercooler hosing, is it 45mm.

2. Is the turbo flywheel housing (case) any different to a normal 998/1275 and has anyone got a spare they want to sell

3. Whats the best head gasket kit and wheres best to get if from.

Any help guys would be appreciated.

The plenum dimensions vary as its a modified outlet in order to fit a cooler, but usually they are about 50mm... I think the T3 outlet pipe is about 45ish..

The transfer case on a turbo has a bigger nose bearing recess than the na models.

Many people use a standard na case because the nose bearings are much cheaper.

Bk450 as Nic says
