worthwhile to replace 1G O2 housing with 2G?

[Brandon92DSM]

I just ordered up a TRE ported 7cm/34mm flapper turbine housing for my 14B to help my boost creep problem out. would it be worth the $90 to throw in a new 2G O2 housing at the same time? (does it really flow alot better than the 1G?)

I was gonna go hog wild at and get a stainless 2.5" O2 housing, but I cant afford that now. I just dont want the creep problem anymore.

thanks

look into getting an evo III 02 housing it flows real good.

I have a stock 2nd gen O2 houseing I'd sell you for alot cheaper than 90

Yes it's a good idea to replace your 1G O2 housing with either:

A ported 2g housing
A ported EVO 3 housing
A 2.5 inch tubular O2 housing
A 3.0 inch tubular O2 housing

would the RnR 2.5" tubular dump o2 housing highly guarantee stop boost creep on a 14B?

from what Ive gathered, no. A higher flowing O2 will help boost creep some, but the heart of the problem is the stock 6cm turbine housing. thats the reason behind the ported out 7cm housings and 34mm WG flapper doors.

upgrade both parts and it shoulndt be any sort of issue with a Big or small 16G, much less a 14B.
