new exhaust housings?

[monka]

any one know if you can get new ct9 exhaust housings? and if the a housing fits on the b?

cheers dudes

 

[TurboDave]

You can get them but iirc they are around £350.

Slight cracks wont cause any problems to boost.

 

[monka]

what is a slight crack though,, and does it matter where it is,

i have a ct9a infront of me with one you can see going to the wheel, also have a ct9b where you have to look into the turbo, (direction of flow) to see the crack,

why dont u just get a new 2nd hander?

 

[TurboDave]

My turbo has a crack running from the wastagate to the turbine wheel I was concerned about it but it has not got ANY worse and it does not effect boost in the slightest, in terms of control or pressure.

 

[monka]

kk, would it have any effect the other way? can you weld them up? i've heard people say you can and cant

 

[monka]

on this diagram the red line is the area where the b is cracked and the green is the a. right the way through.

can the housing's be swapped?

 

[Harvey]

Thats not a crack mate...
this is a cracked housing!!!

:O

 

[dac69er]

housings cannot be swapped. the A has can be machined to fit the slightly larger exhaust side of the B but its not really worth it.

 

[monka]

kk, can they be welded?

 

[dac69er]

can be, yes.
