Garrett G42 Turbine Housing Kit O/V V-Band / V-Band 1.15 A/R

Garrett is well-known for its high-performance turbochargers and related components, and this G42 Turbine Housing Kit is a prime example of their commitment to forced induction excellence. This specific housing is designed for the G42 series turbochargers, featuring a 1.15 A/R ratio and a V-band inlet and outlet. The A/R ratio, which stands for Area/Radius, is crucial for determining how the turbocharger spools up and performs at higher engine speeds. A 1.15 A/R generally indicates a housing that favors top-end power and sustained boost in higher RPM ranges, making it suitable for applications where maximizing airflow at speed is the priority.

The V-band connections on both the inlet and outlet offer a robust and compact way to connect the turbine housing to the exhaust manifold and the downpipe. This design is favored in performance applications for its ease of installation and removal, as well as its ability to maintain a secure seal under high temperatures and pressures, often simplifying maintenance and tuning adjustments. This kit includes the turbine housing itself, ready to be paired with a compatible G42 compressor cover and center housing rotating assembly (CHRA) to build a complete turbocharger assembly. It's important to note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California due to emissions regulations.
