What’s the difference between Turbos from a 996 and 993?
993 TurboThis community is about the last air cooled twin turbocharged Porsche 911. Model year 1996 - 1997. Also inclusive in this forum is talk on the final 182 Porsche 911 Turbos built in 1997 known as the Turbo S.
Clocking of the hotsides in relation to the wastegates.,the chra's are the same.

The flanges are different-so not interchangeable as a bolt on.
The flanges are the same, but you can't use the hotside do to the clocking of the wastegates, same thing on the compresor side. The chra is the same.

It may seem confusing in that 993TT and 996TT had a base "K16 turbos"
and an upgraded power package based upon the "K24" turbos
but they are not identical or interchangable so not relevant to each other unless
you are trying to compare compressor maps or flow characteristics??
the 996TT uses its turbos more effeciently due to its Variocam and being that they
dissapate heat better (new thing called water cooling). I have had and enjoyed both
with stock and modified turbos.
