Was just wondering if a t3 hybrid turbo for a s1 rs turbo would work on my turbo lump? ie would it fit my metro manifold? could i just bolt on and drive away? |

It would, but it would be horrible to drive. Lightweight racer coming soon. |

However, a standard S1 RS Turbo have been proven successful in Minis. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

It will need the metro wastegate and exhaust elbow fitting. The core will also need rotating so the oil feed and drain will be in line with the block. The compressor housing also needs lining up so it suits the pipe run for your intercooler piping. I also made a actuator bracket as well. So no not really! It will fit too the standard exhaust manifold though. Ron |
