Thread: PTE SC6262 E vs Ported S Compressor Housing

Anyone have any opinions/experience on the difference between the PTE SC6262 E vs Ported S housing? I'm asking because I might buy my friend's with an E housing and wanted to know if it would be better to get the port shrouded S compressor housing.

On smaller displacement engines like ours prone to compressor surge with large turbos, the ported housing really helps eliminate this issue. I would consider it mandatory. However I have no direct experience with this particular turbo.

Ben, thanks for the advice. I've been researching in different forums, but as usual there are mixed views.

^Here you go.

MR-4Door-SR20DET, I appreciate it. It makes sense, I'm just trying to weigh my options at the moment.

I have the port shrouded one and it is a nice turbo ...

Thanks Nissan Crazy. I found some people saying that it was excessively loud, do you find that to be true?

It sound like a Turbo .....

thats kind along the lines i was thinking

I run the E cover on my precision 6262. I had a long talk with precision about because I didnt want to sacrifice performance by getting the E housing istead of the larger S housing. Precision said exactly what the post above said and that the S will make slightly more power up top but it would be minimal as well as the lag. I run the E and have no surge issues and it was easier becuase it connected to my existing setup.
