ok. After the initial setback of wrong comp housing, Troy has very promptly (toll overnight) sent out a new front housing. It has the 3inch hole, and looks about the right size. So i will swap it onto the turbo I have and it should be happy days. He also sent out the Blouch shirt as promised.

Awesome. Something to keep the excitement up whilst waiting for Daz to progress and my own car build to be finished.

Good luck with it.

So. Someone tell me if im out of line here. But does this housing look like the wrong one? (3rd pic) Have a look at the massive gap all the way around the wheel. I thought it had to be real snug up against the wheel for it to work properly?

Cool. You see what i mean by the gap all the way round? That cant be right?

Im calling Blouch in Pennsylvania in an hour or so when they open. I called the other day to check the turbine housing and they were good and able to confirm the 10 means 10cm.

ceramic coating goes on the turbine housing RJ. Thats a compressor housing. The small one is just painted black.
