HX35 split turbine ports ????
 

so i read somewhere on here a while ago about cloging up one of the turbine ports on the hx35 to make it spool faster or something of that nature. but now i cant find the thread so if someone can find it or just explain here. is this a true statement ? how can it be true if it is ?

Don't do that. bitch won't spool for ---- that way. Read the HUGE holset thread on HT. I have a H1C w/ a The Turbo Trader turbine housing and I get 15psi by 4300.

put cyls 2 and 3 on one port, and 1 and 4 on the other port

Blocking off one side of the turbine will make it spool very fast, you are essentially cutting the AR in half. But it will also be restrictive. There has been a few talks about making a spilt turbine inlet flange with a throttle plate in it, kinda of a ghetto VGT.

There was some post about this over on turbomustangs.com

i grinded down the little split port piece to a sharp point. looked restrictive as a flat piece there

Re: HX35 split turbine ports ????
 

it is, grinding it down helps spool and top end flow, i believe thats been proven also

Re: HX35 split turbine ports ????
 

yea i just took one look at it and knew it was a flow no no

Abaz(Jeff) did the blocking off of one port on his split housing and it helped out with spoolage.

if this is for your TA, take a look at turbomustangs.com and thirdgen.org, which im sure you already have but just throwing it out there for a fellow TA owner. O0

yup on blue thunder



those split housings 1.00+ex wont spool literally at all on a D unless you block off one side
