Holset on Rb20?

[moso240]

Well My rb20 is completly stock with a 255 walbro fuel pump. I had a AEM EMS installed and tuned at around 18 psi but on the stock turbo people are telling me im lucky it hasn't gone ka-put..Im dont know so much about turbos in specifics so please be noob frindly.. SOO I want to run either a HX35 or HY35 but am unsure which on will benifit me more in the long run.Also are the holsets direct bolt on? if not what has to be done to make these turbos run on the rb20.. your help is greatly appreciated

Yea i told you that turbo will blow sooner or later... your insane. Holset Hx35 for you

/thread..

Good for more power than you need.

how old are you btw? it says your 14.. who bought you an RB?

oh i see your a rich kid.

[moso240]

ok hx35...how is the install tho what needs to be done? it cant be as simple as bolt up and your good to go

[Cameron]

im not too sure. i would think that it would fit the stock mani, but the wastegate deffinately wouldnt.. i would get a new manifold.. plus the wastegate is set for around 21psi i believe so youd be better off getting a 60-1 and calling it a day.

[moso240]

Hmm....is there anyway I could make it all clear with the stock mani...Im on a budget of like 570ish...

[Cameron]

prolly only if you went external wastegate. idk of anyone running internaly gated holsets on an RB.

[moso240]

ok lemme get this striaght if i buy a rebuilt hx35 all i gotta do is undo the internal wastegate replace with a tial wastegate? with no mods to the turbo housing wise?

[Cameron]

that is correct except for weld the flap shut. and make a flange on your manifold for the tial. id go 38mm.

you might try the same place he got his done at. or i could sell you a stock manifold for $50 and you could hack it up and not be worrying about damaging yours if it were to crack.

also search nico for holset. a lot of good info on that search. only do the ones pertaining to RB forums though or you wont get what your looking for.

[moso240]

Awsome thanks for your help.... You think 550cc Injectors would go nice with the turbo?

[Cameron]

how much power you looking for?

[moso240]

high 3's

[Cameron]

yea 550s will be fine.

lol. If you can get bigger injectors get bigger. I'm running 800cc's on mine for 1billion JDM horses.

Newb, you're forgetting about JDM to USDM HP conversion rates. He only needs the 720cc's for 1.27 bazillion usdm hp.

haha...you might want to search... there are plenty of threads that give details on what has to be done. If i remember right there is some custom stuff like welding that has to be done. I went with a 60-1 and love it. After building my car ,if you cut corners and that part is complete you only save a couple of hundred for something that is thrown together. Just my 2 cents

[Cameron]

yea if you dont have enough money to do turbo, tap for an external wastegate, buy a wastegate, buy new injectors, than just go buy a 60-1 and get new injectors.. mott is right. Holset is for the DIYer

[DriftX]

Custom oil feed and return lines...Converting internal to external wastegate...welding an external to stock mani...custom exhaust work...

Hardly for a newb that doesn't even know what size injectors to run.

/thread please.. he needs to search.

[moso240]

i asked for opions on which injectors to run wtf i never asked for your bull****

Lets see when you can search instead of asking questions that get answered all the time then you wont get "bull****" You started off asking the difficulty on putting a holset turbo on your car which turned into another question everyone is tired of answering. Hence, the reason why you get smart*** answers, If you can handle that then you are on the wrong forum....
