Turbo Exhaust Housing Cracks fix?

[Alex Bland]

Ok i just want to know if there is cracks on the echaust housing can you just buy new housing for it and if you do is it easy to change out or do you need to like have it re-balanced or something wierd? (i cant wield it) 1g

14b turbo btw oh and can you just buy the Exhaust housing or is it the whole housing?

Yes you can buy a new housing and but it on the 14b,it's easy to change out, there is only a clamp holding the turbo, here are some sites you can look at that sells turbo housings

FP is selling the evo III turbo for 499 plus shipping. This is the best time to upgrade from the 14b. Thats what i would do.

Agreed with VETTE_50_TH, get this e316g, it's a big upgrade from the 14b and comes with a high nickel housing that isn't prone to crack

So if you change the housing its pritty simple and you dont need anything done to it?

It's a piece of cake, you'll be fine with the housing with small cracks, every 14b with a stock housing will have cracks unless if it's a miracle turbo

You don't even have to pull the turbo either, which makes it really easy. Unbolt the downpipe and loosen the nut on the band clamp. Then gently slide the housing away from the body of the turbo being careful not to smack the fins. That's all you have to do.
