if you see them side-by-side it looks that way.

They both have the same 228, dimensions, etc...

Unfortunately, that myth was busted also...both are cast.

Sounds like you're getting a turbo somewhere in the gt37 family I've actually been looking at the gt37 turbos but I don't have a twin scroll setup. I did find a duall ball bearing replacement cartridge for my t3/t4 so that is a tempting alternative.

I dunno the GT37 family, but this is the Borg-Warner that arrived today. Its freaking HUGE! but I love it

Wow ! That is "big time" right there, where are you planning on installing it ?

Same-ish location but it will be a challenge for sure. Plus two (2) external waste-gates that need room somewhere too...
It WILL however be installed there, if it likes it or not
