anyone running the Invidia High Flow o2 Housing Turbo Outlet? Just wondering about it. Noticeable gains with full 3" exhaust? or are the ones from the other company's better?


also wondering about the megan exhaust manifold. why is it so cheap compared to the other exhaust manifolds?

 

bump. need help on these questions

 

k the invidia o2 housing gives around 10 ponys if im not mistaken thats with a good tune. Its a desent gain for the moneyi think...and as for the megan manifold...megan is just not a very reputable company like a lot of the other guys, like ams or buschur...i mean there might not be anything wrong with megan its just that a lot of there products are not expensive...im sure the manifold does not come with a lifetime warranty like ams or buschur and i think full race and shearer have lifetimes on there manifolds too..hope that helps u..my advice is go with the ported buschur manifold...which is a ported stock mani. unless ur going with any turbo other than green or stock.

 

I have one and I like it. The fit is good and the support flange is a strong point to since and aftermarket manifold will be able to use some help supporting the turbo. The only thing that may bother you is that the o2 signal wire is a bit tight with the bung location on the invidia. It definitely opens things up.

 

You can get the stainless "Ebay" O2 housing for less than 100 and make the same power. Numerous people have had problems with the Megan tubular manifold cracking. It's really not worth the $ on the stock turbo.

i would get the invidia over the ebay o2

 

i have it, and it's a good piece for its price.
i noticed better spool time, the only thing, is the 02 wire might be a lil stretched.

 

thanks for all the help guys. im gonna give the megan manifold a shot, if it doesnt work out or breaks, its got a one year warrenty so, ill get it replaced, sell it cheap, and buy a different one. and im definetly goin with the invida o2 housing

 

PPI is selling swain coated Megan Racing 02 housing for like $99. Search and you will find it. Worth it.

dont do it to yourself. the thing is the megan mani will last about a year and right after the warranty goes out itll crack on you. i wish my digi camera worked so i could show you mine. the flange bolting it up to the head also warped. invest in a better manifold or get the stock ported and coated

 

megan and ebay o2 are the same and are proven. buschur made a thread about testing work o2, invidia, and ebay o2. ebay turned out the best for gains. i don't remember where this thread was or when he tested it but ebay o2 is the way to go. ttp-engineering.com has megan/ebay for $99.

ooh this is saying much!

 

i have it, good piece. it is mated to a 10.5 hotside and i gained 30 whp. on 91.

 

ive got an invidia t/o and im pretty well pleased with it. if you plan on replacing your turbo in the near future i wouldnt bother with it. if not then its def worth the few extra ponies.
