Re: o2 *housing location*

This is where I question your mod list. Pardon me for not believing that someone can have a tial wastegate (if you are using a hybrid t3/t4, not 't/3 t/4 by the way', i assume you chose that turbo because of the stock manifold? so the wastegate is o2 mounted?) and not know where the o2 housing is.

Re: o2 *housing location*

the O2 housing is the section of exhaust pipe that bolts between the exhaust outlet on the turbo and the down pipe.... it gets the name because it is the section of exhaust where the O2 sensor is "housed" or located..

Re: o2 *housing location*

yes, the wastegate is mounted to the o2 housing. You don't need a new o2 housing. If I were you, I wouldn't be worried about new mods. Depending on what t3/t4 you have, you are capable of 400whp.

Re: o2 *housing location*

the only thing i dont see in yoyur mod list is something to tune with. do you have dsmlink or a safc or a chip or what? the only other mod you might want to do is a fuel pressure regulator since your 255 is overrunning the stock regulator

If everything is maintained and you tune it, maybe. It's all in tuning.
