How many kilometers do you get out of them and which part are you talking about exactly? Any pictures available of your cracked one?

KM, don't know. It is more to do with how hot they get.

It is the exhaust side of the turbo. Looks like a snail shell.

Gotta be worth a coupla beers..? :)

What your best price so far? I can price one up for you if you like?

$1000 from GCG. Rip off merchants when you can get it from OS for high $300s without postage.

I did notice there is a place that reinforces the bolt holes that crack by welding on a new flange. Hypergear in VIC...will find out what their prices are as well. But it looks like it sets the turbine further back in the housing and also increases the overall length of the turbo. Check out their website.

Just spoke to Hypergear, they can sleeve the original housing and retap for $200.

Interesting option, certainly one to consider. I definitely would not buy another Ford housing, no point as it will crack again. Needs to be Garrett or equivalent I guess.
