hmm, ive got a 2.0 (almost 2.1 i think) liter ls/vtec. 84.5mm 9:1 cp's, manley rods, fully built gsr head, aggressive PnP, 1mm over valves, itr cams, crower springs and retainers.

if i did get the 22cm divided housing. i would have a divided manifold made to pair 1 and 4, 2 and 3. hmm

 

does anyone have a a hx40 on a 1.8L OR 2.0 OR BIGGER........when and how much boost do you build...just trying to look at some options for my 2.4L h22

harv

 

i found more proof that holset is ahead of garrett (a bit)

holset was making the anti-surge and the MWE groove way before garrett, although garrett had probably played around with the idea before final implementation on garrett's new gt30r

 

I'm getting impatient. . . I'm thinking about slapping all this **** on a stock block and giving it hell until I can finish my built block off.

This no boosting bs has to end. . .now.

 

lol. my car should be together in under a month. paint and all.

i was going to run an hx55. but i can afford a garrett gt40r now, woot.

im a cool kid...sure its gonna pull...but my whole point about holsets is not that they are very viable turbos...its the fact that most are **** cheap in comprasion to some other lackluster snails

 

lol yea. true. there is an hx55 i have my eye on. after seeing dyno graphs, the gt40r doesnt really come alive till 6k.

So its between the hx55 or a pt61

 

hey wantboost.i have new pics up.they are on the first page.has a very detailed pic of the turbo from all sides.the manifold and the str pro drag fogger set up.


harv

 

pt61 yummi....send me some $$$ so I can up the boost on my hx35 and see what it can really do when its in it's efficency island

 

what makes these turbo's spool so dam fast.the price well i cain't argue w/that.some one care to explain.i was looking at a holset 40 and selling my t72 turbonetics bb.BECAUSE THE HOLSET WILL SPOOL FASTER ....AND THAT IS WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR.


harv

 

for people running a hx35w or a hy35w, anyone having problems with them dieing out up top?

 

the hx35 should not have too much of a problem like that...

 

die...ya maybe from a heartattack up top...thing pulls till redline no prob only on 7psi for the next couple days....then finally gettin into it's efficency range

 

im getting closer on mine, just ordered a kteller 3", got a new manifold, that i think will work. i just put my gsr longblock to make sure it was good and all. soon i will be putting the b16 back in.(while i build the gsr) im going to boost the b16 first.

my buddy is getting very close to having his run on his ls hatch. it is a b18a w cable tranny out of a 92 teg. he has to add a wastegate flange to his manifold, reinstall his ic piping, which he pulled off to weld the bov flange on, build and exhaust(he will probably run open dp at first, not a daily driver)

 

Somebody crank one of these up to 25psi and put it on a dyno already. I wanna see it hang with the GT series for a fraction of the price.

 

i think i saw some ford guys doing it once, might could check on some of their boards, also some dsm guys use them.

It also might have something to do with the fact that the HX40 is a smaller turbo.

 

lets all pm drumking a bunch of times so he will gfet tired of it and take pics for us all, lol

 

When it rains it poor fellas. . . .

My setup = still on hold.

Last week, had to replace the radiator on the DD (huge crack)

This week, the fridge/freezer went out. Ouch.

Then, to top things off. . . I just got a collections call from Planned Parenthood. God damnit.

Someday the Holset will spin. Someday. . .

(lets hope before tax season, lol)

 

hey, tell you what happened to me today,

wife calls, battery dead on cherokee, use civic to jump start, i leave in jeep, wife shuts hood on civic with prop still up. hood looks like ^ pushed it flat though, but it screwed. oh well. so bleh.

still gonna go take pics of my buds ls in his hatch, with a hx hangin off the front

its really just me be extremly lazy and not hookin up my webserver...ill get on it so you guys can see my booooooost

oh yea boost controller has been ordered...tryn to find some dyno time in the near future....no 25psi but maybe 15

 

aight here it is.









and here is my hood damage. it looks worse in real life.


and thats after i bent it back, the gap was about 6 inches wide.


anyway, i would call his car a sleeper. hes got some black gsr fat fives for it, and some coilovers, but hes keeping it super stock looking, flat black intercooler. all of the intercooler piping is done, he just pulled it off to weld the bov flange on.

pretty much all thats left is putting the ic piping back on, and installing the injectors. downpipe is just tacked fornow. gotta get it welded, and install the wastegate flange.

 

damn i can't feak'n WAIT!!! you guys did not need to support the turbo? let is know how he like that internal wastegate, i was planning on getting rid of mine but if it's worth keeping i will...is that downpipe flange custom? good job on getting one completed, i'm SO jealous, lol

sad to see your hood like that though...but what are our better halfs for, LOL?
