Tomei Arms Compressor o'ring
 
Hey guys. Yesterday I did a boost leak test in my Evo and it seems like my 1yo Tomei is leaking somewhere around compressor housing. Can someone tell me is there any oring or other seal? Maybe is it normal that I hear some sound when I put a lot of air in the turbo?

Thanks!

PS. does anyone know where can I buy this o'ring?

Yeah there is an o-ring that goes around the base flange of the compressor section to seal against the housing.

I don't know if it uses the same size core as an evo9, but if it does heres the P/N for an evo9 turbo o-ring: MD613777

I suppose Tomei has bigger compressor housing, but thanks!

As long as the CHRA has the same size, I am pretty sure the O-ring should be the same.

Tomei answers emails most cases, so try to contact them.

They do list a rebuilt kit at their product page, so I am sure you can get parts for your turbo.

Good luck.

Unfortunately I cant find email for them, on their site I see only phone numbers.

Thx ;)

Hello again. Tomei doesn't answering for my emails. Do you guys have any other source where could I buy this o'ring?

Try Snail turbo. They make decent turbos at reasonable price. Also great customer service. Tomei turbos are basically 20G EVO IX turbo anyway.

I don't need a new turbo, just a new oring ;)

Of course, they can help with that too. Since they make whole turbos, they have parts too. :)
