All were asking the change is the flange on the housing to mate to the stock manifold.

It seems like the problem with all of the aftermarket turbine housings designed to bolt on to the stock manifold is that they simply don't flow as well as the 'real' housings designed by Garrett.
So, isn't it just easier to use an adaptor plate such that you can then bolt on the 'true' Garrett turbo of your choosing without having to use a compromised-in-flow turbine housing?

What about this bolt on Evo 8 GT35R from Himni Racing:
http://www.himni-racing.com/index.ph...roducts_id=496
I just found it on E-bay, and I don't know anything about it.

I think the cost would be worth it, (assuming its possible to make a bolt on turbo upgrade). Can you imagine a 3071 or 50trim direct bolt on! Oh my... they wouldnt be able to produce them fast enough even if they were $2k!
