Ebay 3in Vband SS O2 housing for 38mm wastegate


Upon my H1c install I decided to go with the BEP bolt on DSM housing for quick spool and not wanting to make a DP. I didnt want to use my stock o2 housing its rusted to crap. I have very good luck with ebay products over the years from my 16g that held up over the years at 20psi to my catback exhaust to my DP and figured id try my luck again.

So I found a 3in vband o2 housing that bolts up and recirculates a 38mm wastegate.

For a 100 bucks this thing was incredible all bolts line up both on the wastegate and the exhaust housing for the turbo it comes with a little flex section for the wastegate.

Its nice and shiny and has stayed that way it has not changed color and its a huge upgrade from the stock o2 housing everything flows very well.

I was worried about it hitting the PS pump or radiator or oil filter but no it fit right in and in a perfect spot not too close to anything.

I havent routed it back to the exhaust its just open right now im going to wait til after this sunday when I run the h1c at the track.

I would recommend this piece to anyone.
