Why not get the turbo rebuilt?

You can use a 4x4 cossie turbo but you will have to spin the housings to get it to fit and you will need a custom downpipe.

Cossie turbo will involve a bit more work from what I hear but can now be done to good effect, T34's go well on 1600cvh's at the moment!

T34 only on a high spec engine, or it's too laggy and plain shit basically

4x4 turbos go on easy enough, just get a cossie downpipe and weld it on to current system

As for cracking th housing, they ALL do that
