If you look around the for sale forums enough you can get it even cheaper, that is the only reason I run one on my car. There are tons of great deals on here if you spend some time.

Yeah, but when you got one used you have to buy the gasket and everything... I found it easier to just buy one new. I think I paid around $90 shipped from ImportDPS.

No, they're more well known in the subie community, but they make some stuff for the Evos as well. They've got a polished SS O2 housing for like 80 bucks....

I paid $40 shipped and included a stock o2-Turbo gasket and the donut gasket. Also, the Megan gasket is garbage and is recommended to run a oem gasket.

Megan seems to work well. That's what I run on my car.

I'm not a fan of o2 dumps. They get annoying after awhile.

I got one of those $40 ones to but looks horrible in side from a flow stand point, does anyone have any pictures of the megan one from the inside to compare to this piece of crap I got?

The only issue I have with my Invidia 02 housing is relocating the front 02 sEnsor because of the O2 housings Size. Fits fine.

The best bang for the buck is the O2 housing you already have. If you can find a dynograph illustrating significant gains on a stock-ish car, I'd sure love to see it. Been here for 5+ years, haven't seen one yet.

I've been searching, I'm looking for a picture that shows where the turbine outlet and the waste gate outlet merge. I can't really tell from that picture. Are they separated down close to the down pipe flange or do they merge right after the flange off the turbo?
