Maybe you could use a plug instead of a banjo bolt? Or rotate the compressor a little to miss the bolt?

Was thinking about grinding the banjo bolt and a little on the turbo. The spot where it hits is a flat surface on the turbo.Can you not grind down the head of the banjo bolt a little so that it's not as thick,long or however you want to say it
Bummer....what specs do I need? How can I find out?Could be any of the journal bearing DSM-flanged units from PTE. Without wheel specs on both sides of the unit your inquiry will forever go unresolved.
^ is right on the $$. Unfortunately it's an eBay "16g" variant. I would get rid of eBay turbo. I assume your car is a 2g correct? If so I would sell eBay turbo and either have @JusMX141 rebuild it or find a used one if you are tight on cash. If you keep eBay turbo, you will have to buy stuff to allow it to bolt up and be functional.The first turbo in the picture is an eBay special. U can tell by the casting marks that say "turbocharger". The second looks like a t25 from a 2g dsm.
Garrett GTA4294, OEM turbo from a 12.7L Detroit Diesel Series 60 engine.
If you're not looking to make at least 800whp, this is not what you need to be thinking about putting on your car.
Funny thing is it's not a direct-fit turbo for a DSM or Evo III, nor is that a T04Z-style compressor cover. Might as well just give it an Ikea name.
