did read on the other forums the suggestion of GTX3582r in the smaller housing as well.

Finally got the actuator so I could put the GTX on. Spent most of today putting it on. Needed a bit of rearranging the hotside pipeing to match the new angle of the outlet but no real dramas.

Spools so fast. Need to readjust the wastegate then I can do some more testing to see if this housing is the way to go, or put the baby GTX back in a Ford sized housing.

The way the bolts are spaced around the compressor housing to hold it on are about 20mm off between stock turbo and the GTX.

To keep the factory actuator bracket I had to rotate the compressor housing.

Look at the bolt circled in Red in comparison to the compressor outlet.

Not the best lighting, too much glare on the dashdaq. Will get another video at night where it will be easier to read.
