Haha ya I dont know about 2. I dont want to over boost this thing. They are safe on 10lbs. I havent found aftermarket rods, pistons, and sleeves yet for the j32a2 yet. What do you think. Go with the HX35 if I do it. I'm not sure of the differances in the Hx35 or the HX40.

huge dilema, ive had my holset sitting in a box in the basement for a while now and didnt pay much attention to it when i picked it up. ive discovered that it is in fact a dual-scroll. being a dual scroll i know that a dual scroll equal length manifold would be the best choice to run on it. but im broke and dont have 600$ laying around for another manifold, which would be better the drag log manifold that i have or the rams-horn manifold that i have?

How much. Power you looking to make? With the log you'll spool it quicker but will lose a bit on the top end........with the ramhorn you sacrefice some spool time for a better top end....that being said I think the log mani is gonna start choking your motor over 400hp

you need some bigger injectors. 18lbs on an hx35 on 450s doesnt sound very good IMO. 450's are good for about 300 whp IIRC. what kind of A/F ratios are you seeing? i would think a 35 on 18psi should make over 300 pretty easily

Sorry for sounding stupid but what kind of power and spool time would I see with a h1c on a stock ls? I just started looking and am only really wanting 250whp. What about an hx35 for what I've read they are good for a little higher boost like 12 an up psi, is this correct?

I would do an Hx35/40 turbo... There quality is awsome... They were made to run over 200k miles under a load at all times... Granted you want to make sure you run a restrictor you can still blow out an oil seal with to much oil pressure

On a D16 I was seen full boost around 4500 and pulled all the way to 8k (sure it could of gone higher

Conservative timing for the cast pistons. Fun daily driver I am happy with the turbo.

Closer to a t3/T04E 50 "trim" at about 49-50lbs/min depending upon model.

Cool thanks. Was just wondering, all these Holset turbos on Honda motors peaked my interest. I figured they would be on the large size for a smaller 1.6-1.8L motor being they come on 5.9L Cummings. Cool to see.

Not to me, personally. Just remember. for the Cummns, the purpose was to make more torque for towing capacity, not power. The HX and HY series were really considered to be the High performance models of HOLSET, and were the only designs that could potentially keep up with higher revving (compared to diesels) gasoline-powered engines. Those that tend to use them will get aftermarket (or OEM housings available from aftermarket companies) turbine housings to fit their "custom" manifolds using the same flange. The housings are physically VERY large to work with (considering the compressor and exhaust wheels in them) and there are limitations to sizing of the turbine housing to work with a certain engine make. They are very cheap to find use, (hence the rise in their popularity), but very expensive to rebuild with their genuine parts.. So most people will just trash it and buy another one, hoping that it was the same exact model that they had before.

Interesting, like I said I was just curious on this. I have my turbo choice picked out, a GT3255B from you or a TO4 .57 .63 AR stg 3 with B cover for block clearance.
