i meant to say the h1c has the smaller compressor housing and laaaaarger turbine side.

actually, the hy comes with a 9cm exhaust housing, which in comparison with the .63 housing on a garrett. it is smaller than the hx. i wouldnt be suprise if it full boost before 3500. it's good for those that want sooner boost than the hx. the hx flow more, however.

motor is still being build; hopefully tuning comes in spring; we'll see how the HX52 do.

Whats the price range on these turbos? how much have people found and actually gotten them for ? would the local diesel shop be the best place to look ? where else can they be found cheap ?

Thats what i said...lol...These things are priced at such a nice nice price...Just rebuild them once you get them and you got a good turbo...I'm probably going with the HX35...But i really wanna see specs on these far as exhaust housing is concerned....Cuz i'm only shooting for shootn' for 300 ish out of the thing...Thats not to much to ask for. Plus its going into RB20...So....Anyone got MAPS on these things?

HEY ZENKICAM u live in GA? We should meet up one day talk RB's lol...Dont wanna sound like a wierdo but i like gaining knowledge on them...U go to any meets in GA?

550cc will get you there, but i know you will be more greedy w/ power lol i would jjust go straight to 72lb injectors; price isn't much different and later you don't have to worry about upgrading injectors again. the hx35 should get you there. the 12cm housing will boost nice and early on the rb25.

Yeah i'm on 240atlanta...Buts its not really my cup of tea...Forums are suppose to be placing where you learn information and share ways of doing things with people...And just relate and meet and talk....240 atlanta is to much relate and talk...Not very informative...Dont get me wrong its some people on there who are a great deal of help and who know there 240 ****...Thats what forums are about improving your knowledge of ours cars and the things we can do to them and meeting people and making new cool friends...

Far as this turbo...Anybody got any recommendations for me concerning If the Hx35 is good for what goal i'm shooting for (290 to 330HP)?

i was reading on there site, that the hx35 was like good for 280hp. i guess that means the turbo itself not engine plus turbo. so 280 over stock hp would be around 610? cause arent, the HP ranges on garretts site, engine +turbo HP? ive always went by that. British measurements are wierd lol.

that's just the power on stock boost of the orginal vehicle. the hx35 can put out up to 500hp, but that's on 30+psi.here's a dyno of a VR4 with this same turbo

cool hopefully hed still check the thread, seeing it was created back in july i asked him how much psi.. but seeing the turbo is good for 600, id say the max psi would prolly be less than 30.. maybe 18 or 20?

The 280hp is what it'll make on a diesel revving to 3k rpm. I don't think anybody has any real maps for this thing, but they do like boost. Then again, so do the Garret GT series. I can tell you, I making a butt dyno 430-450rwhp with my HX35/40 at 1.1 bar. I normally run 1.5 bar though.

some are. if you are running high boost, the internal gate creeps. you 're better off running external gate to hold that boost pressure down.

its not that i was 'anti holset'. i'd just never heard of them before. i was set on a GT3076R. but i can make the same power, for WAY cheaper with the holset. still new to me. but they sound like a hell of a deal.

yeah, they are way awesome for the price, only thing im concerned with is i want more response than i want power, because I want to see how it will hold up drifting. ill probably will get a HX35 no matter what but i want to try out the HY out first. providing i can find the one.

boostsfed: whats the story on hooking the oil system up, im guessing it needs new fittings. Also im guessing you had to make a custom dumpipe right?

my hx52 has the feed and return flange bolt pattern are standard like the garrett's. if i remember the hx35 / 40 has the thread on the inlet hole, 12MM-1.5and the return has the standard flange

is there a way to ditch the internal wastegate, even if it comes with one, cause i found one on ebay, that needs a rebuild but is a HX35/40, but its wastegated... and i really dont want to buy this turbo and turn around and have to buy another turbine housing... please let me know..
