i know there are alot of ballers on here.
whats the deal with tial exhaust housings? they look awesome, and id like to get one, but I cant even find them on the interenet ANYWHERE except for tial's website, and they dont sell.

even google searches dont turn up crap!

there has to be a few people on here that know where to get one, and who probably have one already......whats the deal?

im having an exhaust manifold made soon, and im debating if i should have the man make it with a vband configuration......

 

i guess there are no ballers here...only me...

 

Find a dealer that already carries Tial products and have them order one for you, so long as they're ready for public release.

 

referring to this?

awesome...finally.

thanks!

 

I'll be buying one eventually in the next year or so for the GT28 frame.

 

um... not to sound like a moron, but besides looking blingtastic and being V-banded, whats it do?

 

its an exhaust turbine housing.
stainless steel.
and all v'banded up.

now all i have to decide is should i get it for the gt28 frame or the gt 30.....???

anyone care to comment?
this is for a 2.0L vw 16v motor...probably running 20-25psi on 9:1 compression

 

gt30 Mike

I got that much.... but from a function standpoint, is it any different than a standard iron housing? Or is it just a space saver, weight savings thing?

 

check out tial's website http://www.tialsport.com

not to sound like a spokesperson......but......

tial makes awesome products. they advertise up to 33% weight savings, which is nice, sometimes like 13lbs.

anyways, im getting it because its probably the last turbo i will buy, something different, and will make for totally easy removal. getting to the 4 bolts takes me like 30min, and i end up with chopped up knuckles and an aching lower back. my turbo is on the firewall.

 

I far as i was informed Tial had stated they ran into some problems w/ getting these housings finished up and they weren't going to be released this year.

Directly out of an email I just received from them...

"At the current time we only have the GT28 .64 available. The other ones will be another few weeks.

We can not sell to individuals, only to our distributors. If you let me know where you are located I can refer you to someone in your area or you can contact
http://www.forcedperformance.net

Let me know if I can be of further assistance."

 

thats terrible news. i just emailed atp asking them the availability. i may end up going with a "conventional" housing.

 

That's too bad, I would have gotten one for my GT35R.

 

I'll be working on a group buy when they're available to hook you guys up :D I have a REALLY good source on turbine housings

 

any word when they will be ready??

i mean think this will be dragged out into a year long wait?

 

They definently look bad ***, but I don't really forsee any divided-housing being released.

For the 28 and 30 variants, definently "BALLIN"

 

this may sound dumb.. but where do you get that style flange for the turbo to weld onto the manifold ?? i tried looking around the tial site but didnt see them?

 

It's just a standard V-Band.

ohh.... the turbo inlet looked smaller then the outlet to me

 

I imagine its one of the standard v-bands (3", 3.5", 4")

Tial has just made these main stream, thats all. These housings have been available for ages. they come on the TR30 turbo. Also a Garrett piece, the TR is used in WRC.

Good luck contacting them. I've been trying to get ahold of them for the past month and a half. I've emailed 3 times, called twice and left a message. no response.

 

Tial wants their customers to go through their distributors, call the big tial distributors if you want information on these..
