Default turbo housing question

Is banks power turbo housing and big head waste gate any good or are any turbo housings good? I have seen a few on couple different websites and didnt really know if they are worth it or not..

As far as the waastegate goes I personally think a boost elbow isbetter than the expensive special banks wastegate. Installing a boost elbow is cake too, just need a wrech and if you want better access a screwdrive to tank the intake loose from the turbo.

And for the housing not sure, never heard of anyone running it. Imho I think banks stuff is a waste for the most part at least on our trucks.

ive actually got the banks housing on our 99 bandit R.V

It really helped drop the egt's considering its an HY turbo

I know banks is crap but for a motorhome thats always towing it runs great
