hx35 isnt a dsm turbo man, just popular because most of the dsm crowd is budget (guys dealing with non evo stuff).

sounds like a good deal if everything is legit, goodluck.

Look like that stuff That is my old setup I sold to him.I ran that on a stock LS just ARP's in it and the spool was good 4500 ish rpm.I went 11.6 at 118mph at 14psi at Castrol raceway in a EG hatch on 24.5's. You will love it that turbo was built by a friend of mine who whas working for Rotomaster in Langely a turbo shop and it has low miles.The HX35 is great B18 turbo spool is nice and capable of 500+hp Oh and wtf does Holset have to do with DSM's They are OE on Cummins diesels.

For those not aware, the HX35 is similar to an SC61 or so, give or take a few CFMs

Yeah a lot of OBX parts are sold on ebay but its not strictly an ebay brand. No, OBX is not good to have. I don't know if I answered your questions, it was hard to understand what you were asking.

i love my holset hx35, for what it cost me it cant be beat. i run about the same mph 90dxhmt runs at about 12lbs, just slower et once i get my 60' figured out the mph will probably drop but you get the point. there's a ton left in mine as far as hp goes, just havent leaned on my setup yet. i'd say i'm making around 300hp or so...

i'd say that kit is a steal at $800, run it and let us know how it goes!

I built the charge piping for use with a 24x12x3 core intercooler I was using a SSautochrome one but anything that size and the piping should fit perfect. Good luck with the project.
