Yeh I'm sure if you can't get your money back, CBRD can hook you up. The BBK is an awesome kit if you can get it working.

If it works with the dual flapper 10.5 hotside what is the problem. 10.5 single or dual should still be good. Have you driven with a new actuator yet or just with the other one?

I agree. You don't live farther than a few hours drive from Blouch Turbos anyhow. So, why don't you just drive on over with the suspect turbo and get their opinion? You don't live very far from CBRD either, do you?

The BBK Full has a larger turbine wheel with larger major and minor diameters which require the stock mitsu turbine housing to be precision cut to accomodate these larger diameters. You can't just slap a stock, uncut, 9.8 turbine housing onto the BBK turbine wheel. Duh!!!

yeah i know...thats what is so weird about the whole situation. and i live pretty far from cbrd though. we will see i guess...im tired of trying to figure all of this stuff out. i guess if i cant get my money back then i will send it to CBRD.

i wouldnt care if i had a 10.5 housing with a dual flapper but the thing was bent when i got it and it doesnt have the hole for the pin that keeps the actuator arm on the little tip which was another reason why CBRD thought something was fishy. my o2 dump is just shooting exhaust out of it so something has to be wrong there

Whoah. Whn you mentioned the little hole and the pin I thought that you were refering to the hole and pin that align, or clock, the turbine housing with respect to the center section.

I think that your best bet is to UPS the turbo to Blouch, Explain the problem to them first over the phone. CBRD markets the turbos but Blouch does all the machine work and assembly, AFAIK. They are located in Lebanon, PA.

Are you refering to the turnbuckle on the end of the actuator rod not having an opening in it to slip over the pivot pin on the flapper valve?

Wait wait wait. It sais in your signature you have the o2 eliminator...why do you even need to deal with the wastegate actuator at all?

yes thats what im referring to..there is no hole at the knuckle for the pin to go through so the actuator arm wont fall off. also the hole and pin that align the turbo...the pin is broken off.

as for the o2 eliminator downpipe....im confused? i still have an internal wastegate...it just dumps the exhaust right out instead of rerouting it back unto the downpipe like an o2 housing would do

What are you talking about, dude? he would have a wastegate actuator UNLESS he were running a remote gate.

I have swapped turbine housings so many times and I just throw them around and treat them roughly and that little pin on the turbine housings is kinda flimsy.

The pin on my 10.5 housing broke off while I was porting the housing. Still you can reassemble the turbo w/o that little pin if you analyze the situation and are careful. There is really only one correct way to clock the turbine housing in relation to the center section during reassembly.

that is an 02 eliminator. The other from Map is an 02 dump, two completely different products.

thats what i was confused about...they are different but only because one is one full piece which includes the dump and downpipe....the other is just the dump and you mate your own downpipe to it.

i had an extra pin around but there was no hole to put it through...i had to use a c-clip

Yeah, that tricky MAP fabbed piece is an O2 dump with a merged remote gate which eliminates the need for the flapper valve.

anything that goes back to blouch BBK related has to be setup through us

I suggest sending it in, we will get it taken care of

hey guys i will call you tomorrow to fix the problem. the previous owner ended up telling me that he took the right hotside off because there were broken studs in the right one and his mechanic said that it would be "fine"......so now i have to take the turbo back out of my car and send it to you. hopefully nothing else is wrong with it. how much am i looking to spend?
