rubber gasket in turbo compressor is broken
The red rubber ring on the cold side compressor housing on my precision 6152 is broken. Where would I start to look for a replacement on this piece?

I have the same issue, ordered a new one. Will install next week.
Question is -
Were you getting a boost leak because of this?
I am, and it did not happen until I took off the housing to work on oil filter relocator?
Turbo is a lot noisier, takes longer/ more throttle to spool.
The only silicone coupler I had to take off was the 90 degree bend that goes from turbo to first piece of IC piping, I put it back on very tight.

my gt3076R lost that rubber seal and my turbo seems to spool just as well and make plenty of power too. Im 100% sure its not leaking. When rotating the housing that rubber gasket will bind up and get pinched. I honestly dont think on a garrett turbo at least that it matters. The front cover and backplate fit together very tightly.

When i took the housing off, only half the o ring was in there. I put it back the same exact way thinking if it worked like that before it would be OK
maybe because i put back on the half o ring its not clamped down equally
Just seems weird that the turbo would crap out at the same time as doing the work.
