Default Saab .42/.48 questions

I picked up one of these a while back before i got my b16 hatch , so its just sitting around and im debating on selling it because its so damn small. But before i do i just wanted to see which (if any) turbine/compressor housings can be used to upgrade this to a .60/.63

Sorry for the newb question but ive been searching around and havent been able to find out if i could do this by just switching the compressor/turbine housings...

and on the same line's of that question, has anyone on here actually made their own T3/T4 hybrid by piecing a true t3 turbo and a t4 from some diesel??

Im just trying to think of a better way than paying 250+ for something that could be put together for much cheaper

the housings needed to upgrade your t3 to a .60/.63 are .60 and .63.

you answered your own questions

ps - you'll need the wheels too.

i guess i kind of worded it wrong......

can i use the housings from a Nissan t3? or do i have to use it from another garrett/Airesearch t3?

and i have to use the wheels too? hmm i might as well just sell this one and find a .60/.63

and again with my other question.... anyone ever make their own t3/t4 hybrid?

You could just keep the turbine side as is and replace the compressor wheel and the compressor housing that would work ok
