Re: holset hx50?
I use a Holset Hy35 and i dont get full boost untill like 4500-5000. The huge Ext. side of the HX50 would suck balls esp on a LS that cant rev very high.

Re: holset hx50?
yeah thats the one to big ---- it then i will find somethin else

Re: holset hx50?
they're so big you need at least 4in exh - otherwise theres so much backpressure it'll pop the exh wheel right off the chra - seen it happen more than once with guys using modified mitsu housings -- that ---- just broke the shaft right at the wheel.

Re: holset hx50?
way to big..but thats just my opinion
|
Re: holset hx50?
That turbo on eBay looks like complete ---- man.
Does the shaft even spin? Looks like it's been sitting at the bottom of a lake for 20 years. |
Re: holset hx50?
doesn't matter if it spins I'm lookin for somethin as cheap as posible I will have it rebuilt anyways

There's no way you break off a big shaft Holset turbine shaft due to "backpressure." The most power the DSM guys were pushing out of a Holset was 500-525 whp circa last spring, that's nothing fancy for run of the mill 3" exhaust. Trust me it's in the TUNE, or complete lack thereof! |

Huh.
There are a widely disparate bunch of results for the various Holsets on various engines. |
