    so do u mean ur missing the whole exhaust housing?
    im using a t34 on my rallye 16v turbo,the t34 is a hybrid
    the '4' part is bcoz it uses a t4 compresser housing
    and the '3' part is bcoz its the exhaust housing off of a t3!
    any t3 exhaust housing should fit,
    try turbo developments on 02085603927 thats who built my turbo they mite b able to sale u anew or second hand housing??????????

    Like this, but without three of the holes? They're pretty readily available if that's what you're after?

    didnt know you could buy them off the shelf , actually spent the past couple nights doing drawings so i could have them flame/plasma/laser cut
    is it possible to get the other side of the turbo aswell ?

    The other side as in the compressor housing? Any turbo recon place will be able to sell you what you need....
