Interesting question Mark,I was under the impression that the Evo 3 housing doesn't have as much meat in it as the other 070 housing.


Yes when they revised the turbine housing for the EVO3 they made it a much lighter thin wall casting.
There is hardly any extra material. TD06H is a huge wheel and requires approx 60mm bore there is no way you can bore it that size.
Maybe you can machine in the wheel and have a smaller than optimum bore outlet size?
EVO1 and EVO2 turbine housing is MUCH thicker and you can do more with them.

So it will be bored 60mm right through?


im saying it has been done many times over and over.. thats all.. ill post a pic once i take it but yes its been done before..


Well I'm saying has it been bored 60mm right through? Simple question.

No way a TD06H turbine will fit in a EVO3 070 housing not enough material.


i beg to differ ;) seen it done many of times!
i guess again it comes down to what sort of technique is used and who is doing but this has been done many many many times before.

if you want proof i can actually post up a picture of some machining work and this sort of wheel in an 070


Yes post a picture please, remember I said an EVO3 070 housing :wink:


yerp genuine MHI EVO 1/2/3 070 rear housing.. STOCK machined out..
ill see if he will let me take a pic.. hehehehe

if the guy who machines your housings out cant do it.. then obviously theres a trick to getting it to work hey...

mark,

what is the price of a tdo6 compressor housing?


TD06-20G 3" inlet cover is $188.00, it's the one we use on the GTP6208 see the picture on the turbo page of our web site.
This will fit directly on a VR4/EVO1-3 turbo but you need a 20G wheel as well of course otherwise you are not going to make much boost :)
