    They are Variable Geometry Turbos. They might fit but with fabrication.
    Your 1993 Dodge Stealth is one of 6351 that received VIN numbers. Based on the order of the serial numbers, your car was the 5212nd out of the 6351 that were made that year.
    Your car was built in the 3rd week of February 1993. Of the 47380 vehicles made at the Nayoga plant, your car was the 40537th vehicle to be created that year.
    There are 281 other cars that were made with both the same interior and exterior color. There are 779 cars with the same exterior color and 2316 cars with the same interior color.
    Note: The production order is assigned based on the order of the serial number.

    I guess you can say anything will fit with the right fabrication but I'm about 99% sure nobody makes adapters for them so at the least you would need to fabricate adapter plates and downpipes.

    VGT's would be great. Problem is, only Porsche seems to make them that work on benzene (petrol) engines. And you could practically buy 2x MHI 16g's with cash leftover for the cost of 1.

    For what it's worth, MHI, Garrett and Honeywell are all working on producing more variable geometry turbos, but it will likely still be a while before there is any real data or prices.

    Honeywell's is due out by the end of 2014 IIRC.
