ebay 02 housing???

Is this the kind of housing that everybody is talking about buying off of ebay? Is this housing ok quality and performance wise?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mitsu...temZ8024952228

I want to make sure I buy a decent housing, but I also want to make sure its not a crappy one.

I know D. Buschur tested one, but he said it was around $80 I thought. The one in this link is $59.

Can someone direct me to a housing you are using from ebay and haven't had any issues with.


Thanks!

They are all the same, I'ma get that one, it should be ok if your Downpipe has a flex section and so on, even if it DOES break, they are so cheap to replace and make power, get it, it's all equally the same.

I am wondering if jet coating or even cryo treating will make the part stronger?

No Jet coating or ceramic coating will not make it stronger. What it will do is help lower your underhood temps, decrease spool up, and make more HP! PM me and I will hook you up Evo NY style (good price) for ceramic coating.

I am wondering about the cryo treating myself. There is a place locally that cryo treats so I might need to look into that.

Ive had that on my car for a few months now, I dont have a flex in the DP, but the spring bolts hold it ok with no leak, have to re-use the stock donut, but you will need to make the donut bigger from the stock o2 housing.
