FAQ
Will housing 179192 fit on stock exhaust manifold?
No. 179192 uses a T6 inlet divided (twin-volute) design. Stock manifolds are usually T4 or T3. You’ll need a proper T6 manifold or adapter to use this housing.
How does 1.45 A/R affect spool vs power compared to lower A/Rs?
A higher A/R gives more top-end flow and cooler EGTs under load, but spools slower than lower A/Rs like 1.15 or .85. If you build for street performance, expect a trade-off in quickness off-boost.
What applications is this best for?
Best for high-hp street, diesel pulling, drag, or any setup needing robust exhaust side flow—especially on Cummins, Powerstroke & Duramax builds with upgraded fuel systems & downpipes. Compatible with S500SX-E line of parts.
Do I need to mod exhaust piping or wastegate setup?
Yes. When using 179192, expect to upgrade or ensure the exhaust piping is sized for T6 inlet, and external wastegate configuration needs proper tuning. Outlet is V-band; match piping accordingly.
Can I swap housings between S500SX & S500SX-E turbos?
Often yes—these housings are designed for S500SX/S500SX-E interchangeability in many cases—but check flange and compressor match to avoid mismatch.
