i just got a TD05H turbo and the housing of the internal wastegate port is cracked.
will this have any effect on performance of the turbo? -------------------- it's not a dsm unless it's leaking something

Extreme heat causes it...something a turbo generates normally.
As long as it not cracked all the way through, you'll be fine. I've got 3 housings and they all look like that. -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???
