I had a few questions about the Holset HE351

found on for cheap thats in good condition. but im only running a stock b18b1 block right now. is this turbo going to be to big for 300-350 whp range?

i know theres going to be boost lag with it,

and it will probably make a steeper power curve than some of the smaller turbos, but can the tuner work it out for a smoother power band?

any big issues with this big of a turbo?

i read the FAQ about bigger turbos and smaller turbos. but just wanted some insight from personal experience.

car is a 92 eg hatch daily driven

already have a 38mm turbonetics waste gate, and a synapse synchronic bov that will be ran with it,

also tune on s300

 

that turbo is not that big just looks big like all holsets

 

oh really? sweet

well these are the turbo specs:

A/R- 0.65
Compressor inducer- 60mm
Compressor exducer- 84.582mm
Compressor trim- 54
Turbine inducer- 65mm
Turbine exducer- 58mm
Turbine trim- 80

 

you're gonna have a powerband that is 2k long. 5200-7200ish. perfect for drag racing, daily, not so much.

 

ya thats the type of racing i will be doing. i dont drive fast or street race. its stupid, lost good friends because of that.

 

Buddy just put one on a stock LS, Power came on strong all the way to redline. needless to say, Ill let the pics do the talking.

haha oh damn thats some crazy mess! ya i got my gsr forge build in progress. this set up is only gonna be running for 3 months until i finish the motor. heres mine
