My shroud was broken near the fan and I bought a turbo shroud. I see that the shroud is a little different in the cooling area in plastic grey. My thinking is that I can remove the good plastic part the is riveted on to the black unit and match it up to the red unit and rivet it on. They is some extra sheet metal on the turbo on the inside. Who knows? I can do this job as I have modified a shroud from a MFI to CIS before so it should be OK. The question is the profile the same. It looks the same.

The red shroud is missing the piece for the air to flow over the oil cooler

You either need the end piece for the red shroud or hack the black one apart for the end piece.

As for the extra piece of sheet metal inside that might have something to do with cooling the turbo motor better?
