Message: [QUOTE="Strokersace, post: 20516, member: 622"] I've never heard of the L99 having a bigger turbine wheel. The differences in the E99 to L99 VAN turbo are the exact same as the pickup turbo. The E99 has the same compressor housing as the OBS turbos. This means that it only has 4 bolts that attach it to the backing plate and the outlet is only 2". I believe it's a 1.10 a/r compressor housing. The L99 pickup and van turbo has 5 bolts to attach to the backplate, is a 1.00 a/r, and has a 3" outlet. The exhaust side of the turbo is the same for both the E and L van turbos. Same with the pickup, it's the same for both. The differences come into play only on the compressor side. As for putting a 1.15 van exhaust housing on the pickup turbo or a 38R, yes it can be done. HOWEVER, the clearances between the outer edge of the fins on the exhaust wheel and the housings will be different. At one time I had a picture showing the truck wheel and the van wheel to see the very small but crutial difference. [/QUOTE]
