JD stuff is very hard to come by. Is yours damaged or are you installing a JD intercooler setup?

Looking to install the JD intercooler set up as the housing off the JA as you know makes it pretty much impossible to run a decent set up as i dont want pipes of the engine and making look like a game of snakes and ladders..
so yea all i need is the housing...
if there isn't any around is there other opitions?

If you rotate the compressor housing in the JA,JB TC06 it should connect up ok. Not as neat as the factory setup because the angle is not quite right but it will hook up.
The compressor housing it held on by that big circlip. Just use some circlip pliers and you can rotate it to wherever you want.

The wastegate bracket then becomes a problem :(

Insert a big jack bar into the turbine outlet and slowly rotate it towards the drivers side of the car, i have seen it all done before and seems to work a treat

Rotating the JA housing.

Some thought.

AFAIK, most JD's came with a TC05 - not a TC06.

You can get JD style housings from the US.

Remove the wastegate before you rotate the housing.

Remember the compressor housing can come loose while you rotate it, and will damage your compressor wheel if it does.

You will need to make up a new Wastegate bracket.

David.
