Divorced vs. factory style o2 housing
And BluEVOIX I meant the MAP/Titek/Greddy O2 housing which is why i typed it that way because they are all exactly the same and comefrom the same exact place, Xavier or whatever that ghetto brand is on ebay sells the same exact O2 housing also, they can be had forabout $144.00 shipped on ebay if you search cheaper than MAP sells them for.
A quality O2 housing if you dnt mind the 2.5" outlet is the JMF recirculated one, Tiago at VR-Speed will hook you up for a great deal.

well after lots of reading this is what ive come up with
the map housing/dp combo - probably worth it, but dont want to spend that much money right now.
titek/map version - apparently the v1 was good, v2 they got rid of the divider wall but it has a lot of volume. i can find zero dynos, but what i did find was that lucas english put one on a 522whp setup, went as far as to make a HD youtube vid showing the housing and how he liked it, but of course i cant find the results. i believe ER even modified a v2 to have a 3 inch v band.
Megan - the only housing with dyno proven gains years ago from buschur. the issue is boost creep. some have no creep on an untouched housing, some require porting, and and some have reported creep WITH porting.
JMF - i have found zero info anywhere, and the angle almost looks to be less optimal than the megan, but i cant find pics of the inside.
o2 dumps - absolutely proven on big setups. buschur claims no use on stock turbo setups. i havent found many dynos of dumps on stock turbos, and some people claim losing power, mostly through not holding boost, almost as if it causes the setup to have not enough back pressure.
so in the end, there is ZERO clear evidence as to where i should go with this. the megan at this point is looking like a good option since it is cheap and i can port the opening to 40mm or so (something i saw recommended), get it swaintech'd and still be under 200 bucks. the issue is that if it doesnt work/creeps the job is such a *****.

There is nothing wrong with the Megan. Take your time to inspect it internally, and if the merge hole is smaller than a quarter, open it up. I went a good amount bigger than a quarter, and smoothed out the crap inside mine. Doesn't boost creep, and has been running perfect.
