ok cant find this on a search not very helpful parts just an install anyhow but i have the buschur TBE and the O2 housing from their site it doesnt have the part number it just says fabricated O2 housing i cant get my downpipe to match back up now it will not fit around it the downpipe flange seems to big to go around it any suggestions?

 

what?

the downpipe wont mate up to the 02 housing?

 

yeah if i could find my tape measure i could try and find the measurements called buschur they said it should slide right over but it doesnt somehow the flange is to me seems like its not wide enough... i do not know how else to explain it only thing i could think of besides sue dave lol jk is grind out the flange all aroung with a dremel but i am not entertained by the idea

 

are you using the oem doughnut gasket? cause im pretty sure the buschur downpipe uses a regular gasket in place of the oem doughnut

 

no not using the doughnut gasket actually they say remove the doughnut gasket from the oem and i jsut dont know the ideas i have came up with myself are heating the downpipe to slide it on the O2 housing or dremel out the flange and then final idea is cut flange off weld on slightlly larger one

 

still no other suggestions bump

 

can you get some pics?

 

Could be a flaw in the ebay o2 housing.

Have you contact buchur?

 

It shouldn't be happening.....

 

sentences and punctuations are your friend

 

My only suggestion would be to grind a little bit of the coating off of the 02 housing as it may be a hair too much. I just went in the back and put one together with a downpipe. It was deff. a tight fit but, it did go on. Or if you dont want to take any coating off you may as you said take a little off the flange.

 

I just took three more 02 housings out of the wrapping and put them onto two different downpipes here. They are very tight, you may even need a small hammer to gently tap the flange of the downpipe onto the 02 housing it self. No real force needed. Just something a little stronger than you hands. Atleast there will be no leakage. Let me know if there is anything I can help you with. Either give me a call here or send me a pm if you would like.

 

Now thats good customer service

 

Just throwing this out there, if you got the 2.5" dp it will not fit with that O2 housing.

 

I actually spent half of the time going through our quickbooks to try and find this customers name so I could call him to remedy it sooner than him finding the thread again on here but, I do not have a filter to look for people in Utah specifically, LOL.
