water pump housing compatibility question

thanks in advance

The housing is not the same, The neck is not the same.

only the water pump itself is the same.

The housing has an extra outlet/ line for the turbo.

The Turbo neck has a threaded spot for the Fan temp.

And your bump was deleted... bumps are forbidden in the 2nd gen technical section

well I guess you could take a non turbo housing and drill and tap it put in a fitting to run the extra coolant line for the turbo.

It would bolt in then.
