Welding onto turbo compressor housing
Turbo: Holset HY35W
Problem: The turbo has a compressor housing that was cast with a built in 90 degree outlet. I'd like to convert the outlet into a regular straight shot outlet. The hard way to get this done would be to cut off the bend and weld on another right? I think the oulet is about 2.3" and I would like a 2" outlet, but if you take a look at the diameter im working with then you realize this could be a problem...
Easier way of getting the job done would be to just buy a dang compressor housing cover that can be machined to fit over the turbo I want. BUT, i can't find much info on other turbo compressor specs for their housings...

um why not just get the cover you want...
it appears you have the generic clamp style holset....find a cover on egay and save yourself $100 bucks in fab work
and your going to need a 2.5 hump coupling to make it work...heat it up to get it over the stock vband'd clamp and have the hump where the ring is...works like a charm

I should have posted a picture of a mr-2 engine bay.
I am currently running a side mount intercooler which has the IC pipes leading in the same direction in the first picture.
I also have a Celica A2W intercooler that I use.
Now do you guys see why I want to do this?

I want to get a comp cover that I want, BUT i need a spec sheet of every damn HY turbo out there so i can see what fits and which turbos have a comp inlet hole slightly smaller or same size as the HY35.
I need HELP

based on my knowledge almost all holset 35 series carry a 4" inlet...the h1c series come w/ some slighty smaller...
i think your best bet would be getting the straight outlet holset housing and using a welded elbow on that to go the opposite direction...vs cutting the existing housing and flopping it 180
