As far as the hotside goes, you are out of luck. The Hitachi turbo and manifold used on FC's are proprietary for the rotary engine. For cold sides, you can build a hybrid using a T04 backplate, T04 60 trim compressor housing and wheel.

I guess that means one couldn't retrieve the dimensions from the exducer and see if they match any other aftermarket (garret, turbonetics, etc) hotside huh?... Bummer. Okay, so the hotside is out of luck, and the compressor side can actually be modified to handle other trims.

What about oil flanges?

The turbine (flange) is proprietary to the application.
Almost everything else is based on a Garrett T3 / T04 turbo.
So all the little bits are usually swappable.
