T2X & T3 turbine housing w/V-band wastegate flange

Nice (pricey) option for those that want to go EWG w/o a new mani. Has a stage 3 t3 turbine listed too...

ATP sells those as well, very nice.

I wonder though, they list as a .72AR housing. Is that a T3 .72ar? If it is, that seems a bit large for our motors.

FYI, those housings have different dimensions than standard housings and your DP and intercooler piping won't fit. A friend went down this road with his golf and failed.

I think that AR for the t2x housings, since the t3 go from a .63 to a .82. If it were a t3 .72AR, I think it would still be viable... maybe a little large for 1.6.

The move from IWG to EWG is going to require the DP change anyway. How would it change the IC piping enough to really matter?

The biggest issue for me would be squeezing a 44mm WG between the turbine housing flange and the cam cover with the top mount.
