tyler031734 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I bought a water cooled Turbo off a member here. I opened it up to do some porting before I ordered a rebuild kit and I found whats in the picture. I know these crack quiet often and its usually not a big thing, but this one is so huge im not sure this is "standard stuff" i've heard about. Can I get some .02? the crack's span all the way to the markes I scribed with a screw I had close by. I thought about welding it but these are cast iron arn't they? There for not able to use my wire feed. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter72 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Think its made from cast steel. Cracks look normal depending on how much use that turbo has on it. Should be able to heat it up then weld it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler031734 Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 it looked rather clean and the bolts came out with out much issue. Not much remains in the oil drain tube as well. The bearings are so shot the compressor wheel touches the housing. Anyone reading this have a T4 cold side they would sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
