46111, O2 housing for 420A engine custom turbo Posted by gilee_8, Apr-03-03 06:17 AM
Sup guys... this is a quick question, where can I get a O2 housing for a Small 16G turbo which is for a Eclipse GS? 420A engine. I been looking for 1G's and the 2G's stock..but I think they are not pointing the correct direction.. any ideas? Thanks. Gil

Actually I was wondering the same thing. What about the stock o2 housing for a 14b turbo? It LOOKS like its pointing somewhat in the right direction but im not too sure.

Buy a 16G flange and weld your downpipe right to that then bolt it to the turbo. Flange should be ~$25 and you won't have to worry about it pointing the right way.

The stock 14b o2 housing outlet will point right at the radiator if you mount the turbine inlet like most people do on this board - horizontally opposed to the ports on the head. The stock turbo model mounts the turbine onto the bottom of the exhaust manifold, which puts the inlet at a 90 degree angle to the head(and the o2 housing outlet downward). I think the only option that we have right now is to weld together a custom downpipe - starting from the flange.

The only used turbos that I know of that allow you to use the stock o2 housing are the t-3's and the IHI'2 off of the turbo t-birds.
