The brownish rusty lookin part of the turbo that is hooked to the exhaust manifold. im pretty sure thats the housing. its stamped on the back of it what size it is. 91.5 and 92 was 21cm and 89,90, and 93 were all 18.5. thats what we believe. Brandon

The number that is stamped on the housing is how many cubic centimeters of volume there is in the exhaust housing. If I'm wrong someone will let us know.
