replacement for cracked turbo housing

There have been a few P-models sold for salvage in the last few months. Check the insurance aviation salvage auction sites, and see who bought the salvage and reach out. You may have to ask the seller to send the buyer a message for you.

I've heard of turbo housing cracks being repaired, but I've never done it so don't know any details.

I had the unit shipped to main turbo and they installed a new housing and shipped it back with 24 hour turn around. Pretty amazing service for this day and age. It’s going back on this week.

To close this out, the turbo was reinstalled and I flew it back across the country with no further sign of trouble. I then flew to Sedona this last week and back. A total of around 25 hours of flight time so Id say its fixed. I should add that main turbo swapped the housing and shipped it back 2 day all at no charge, without me even asking. Remarkable service. I would recommend them highly.
