I have been looking for a 12cm w/g housing for quite some time now. I stumbled upon this one and he says that it is waste gated but there is no aculator is there anything else missing?

I posted a wanted ad for one here and got 4 replys in the last 2 weeks. I bought one with a Banks stinger WG for $50. I can PM you some contact info for guys that have them for sale if you want.

hard to say if anything else is missing, the only other bolt on piece is the backing plate. actuators aren't cheap though, so be aware. over the last couple years i've bought three, didn't pay more than $25 for them. in working condition.

Hey thanks guys shure chass that would be great but i'm new at all this, I was told that a 12cm w/g would help my truck be more pepy. what about the manifold does it seem to look ok? The reason I'm asking is that when I get a pyo guage I don't want to drill into my original manifold and that one comes tapped.
Is there any specific questions that I should ask like about the backing plate?
thanks

I wouldn't buy a used stock manifold from my own brother. Like Dave said, you ought to pass on the housing too.

Chass that would be great if you could PM me
thanks
Also anyone else with any ideas of where to get my hand on one, that would be very helpful

I'll PM you the contact for the three guys who still have them that contacted me.

As far as drilling and taping your stock manifold. It couldn't be more easy. Just follow the directions that you can find here in one of the stickys or FAQs. I just did mine. I was putting it off because I thought it was going to be a big deal but it was so easy that I feel a little silly for putting it off now

Do it at the same time you do your 12 cm housing so that you don't have to worry about filings in your exhaust housing. I didn't take mine off because I figure the metal that I couldn't get with the pen magnet will just fly right out the exahust. There isn't really anything for the metal to harm in there because the filings are so small.

I have been looking for a used one to. Everybody seems to want $120-$150 bucks for them so far. Will keep looking.

Chass

Honestly, I think those prices are probably pretty good considering that you get the wastegate with it. Try and buy ANY new wastegated housing and see if you like that price!! I was happy to pay $75 shipped but I think I got a good deal. I was hearing that you could find them for $25 but I never ever found one that cheap.

Maybe waldo can pass on the contact info of those two guys he doesn't strike up a deal with . . .
