Please see the attached pic for reference. Circled in red is an attachement that is attached to the primary turbo's compressor housing. It has two nipples, one that runs to my profec b step motor and the other to the actuator. It came off recently and apparently jbweld didn't keep in attached to the compressor housing. I believe this is the only reason my car won't boost past 11psi

thanks in advance

weld (not jb weld) it or get a new compressor housing.

What did you say? Get a set of BNR stage 3 turbos?

Definitely get it welded at a shop.

Don't weld it. I put a vacuum cap with crazy glue on mine just in case I wanted to reverse it. I ran 14-15 psi with it. Never had it come off.

you capped off what? that whole attachement came out of the primary turbo housing. I tried jb weld and that didn't work, figured that would be better than crazy glue. I need to figure out a way to get it do stay in the compressor housing.

surprised more people haven't had this same issue. Don't quite understand how that part wouldn't be attached to the housing better

Wow. Never seen that break before. You might not be able to weld that easily given age and exposure to oil and such. Then again, I'm not welder so I'm just speculating.

cleaned it up and lathered it down with crazy glue, seems to be stuck in there pretty good. will test soon
