oops, didnt realize this was in the newbie section. sorry dood. but yes like everyone else said the o2 housing will allow spool to come in faster. i have a used aftermarket o2 housing for sale $60 bucks plus shipping

yes its worth it. you dont get much more horsepower but you will get better turbo spool. the Invidia is alittle hard to install cuz where the 02 sensor bung is on th housing. i have the titek and i like it alot

It really depends. If you're planning on switching out the turbo to a GT series then don't. I really mean don't. Changing the turbo O2 housing is not simple like the DP or exhaust.

If you're going to stick with the stock turbo then yes. You'll notice the quicker spool.

anyone know about the Megan Racing O2 housing? I was under the impression it was a pretty worthless mod.

the o2 housing is worth every penny. Itll make about 15 whp and around 10-15wtrq

its $120 part from megan, $80-90 on ebay... You dont need to get the expensive ones, they dotn make any more power than these do (invidia, works, titek)

It also helps the car spool a touch faster.

Cheers!

The newbie forums are for, questions like this.. what you don't realize is when people like you just type search in every thread thats that only response that people find when they actually do search. Stop being a tool and answer the question. If you dont want to then move on, simple as that.


Everything on here is repetitive, there are always new evo owners and the same exact questions will continue over and over and over and over. Very rarely is there new info that really needs to be asked.

Cheers!

I think it's a good idea because you can still reuse the O2 housing.

If I were getting an FP Green, I would do it and the o2 housing at the same time and not worry about the o2 now.

A good combo with the O2, would be a ported mani. with a port hotside. This way you can pull the whole thing out to take it apart and reassemble.
