33 Vs 34 Turbo Housings

[3intheBack]

34 housing is larger then 33 housing. (edit: REAR housing)

Id LOVE a 34 housing lol............

I ve seen the above comment made a couple of times and would like to know just exactly where they are different.

I'm mid way thru a DIY Split dump pipe setup on my S2 Neo (so would be an R34 turbo) and I have installed my mates rear housing from his R33 because he had already done the hard work of putting in the divider between the wastgate and turbine. I honestly couldnt 'see' any difference in size.

Was I wrong to do this?

He has also gone to a lot of effort to machine out the housing from the turbine blades out to the edge of the housing.

The above photos were my first ever succesful picture posting on this forum. And I have been a member since last November. Soo woohoo to me !

Since I'm on a roll, heres a couple more.

Not bad for a stocko phone camera.

P.S. Tangles I may have the 34 housing you're looking for....

nice work on the welded in splitter though.

to me they look about the same too, its just depth that makes the one on the right look bigger.

I think it is just that the R34 original housing is further away in the photo.

On the far left you can see the divided flange I bought and it matches perfectly with both housings around the inside edges.

I suppose the proof of what works best, will be in the pudding.

ATM I am running the standard dump pipe on the new (divided) housing so it sounds like passing wind when the wastegate opens...quite embarrassing really.
