Re: Project Spyder 2009 Build

Very nice! But why the flex section in the o2 housing?

I think its an "XS power" housing, I'd imagine they did that so it wold bolt up to the wastegate better.

It's really not that flexible... I just got the same one and welded v-bands on for the o2.

Kerry, is that turbine housing ceramic black or just painted?
