R turbo crack

[polak t5r]

Hi all I'm looking at a turbo it has a slight crack on the wastegate housing does anyone know if this would effect its performance thanks

very hard to find one that isn't cracked, I've got a badly cracked exhaust housing on my 18T and it's made no difference to performance.

Yep, boosts to 22psi all day long, especially now that I've replaced a split boost pipe :)

I would imagine that what cracks you have are much the same as mine was...

and as I mention before Colin then fitted this 15g hotside to his 18t and it's running lovely, so some cracks don't matter too much
