Abstract
An exhaust gas turbocharger housing (10) for an engine includes a main turbine housing portion (14) and a throat portion (12) defining an exhaust gas passageway (20) that is in upstream fluid communication with the main turbine housing. The exhaust passageway (20) communicates exhaust gases (EG) to the main turbine housing portion (14). A flow divider (22) generally bisects the exhaust gas passageway (20) forming a first inlet passageway (24A) and a second inlet passageway (24B). A flow hole (26) is disposed through the flow divider (22) for permitting the fluid communication of exhaust gas (EG) from the first inlet passageway (24A) to the second inlet passageway (24B).
