Which 02 housing won't cause creep?

Don't care which one has the most power, just looking for one that is less prone to boost creep. I was looking at map 02, jmf,indivia, BR, or just stock one ported. Anyone have luck with any of these? I know I could go with a dump but I don't want one.
Thanks

Megan is what I used on my IX (well, actually it was the Buschur coated, but same as the Megan). I did used a Dremel + grinding stone to smooth out the interior though.

None at all, completely controllable with both a MBC and GM BCS. I've installed quite a few Buschur/Megan o2 housings and haven't had any issues with them. I always like to grind off any internal ridges though.

I think toxic fab was going to produce one. you should contact him. if i ever deviate from stock I will probably try him first.

Here is a pic of one of his: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...on-pics-8.html


Hopefully it will meet the following criteria as mentioned by another member

It's too bad the INVIDIA has it's o2 sensor located in the wrong spot (it does have the support tab though), and the WORKS costs so much you'd have to sell a kidney for one (it only works with their downpipe), nevertheless - it's out of topic now. Thanks for trying to see if it's feasible cost wise though. If you guys ever decide to make a non-dump O2 housing, coated, and the support tab in place, definitely interested (a plus too if it has support for the stock heat shield).

nope they sell them in ported or non ported versions. You can send it off to any good shop and port it out if you want just dont take to much out or leave it alone and just coat it

you can not port a megan o2 housing, but you can clean the weld spots a little. Megan is so far the most proven o2 housing ( comparing it from the best bang for the back point of view). None of the aftermarket o2 housing creep, it just depends what you are wiling to pay for. I dont think the oem creeps either....thats where twin scroll set up comes in handy
