Apparently I edited my post while you were posting yours.

LKOO at the ebay link I posted. HX52 from a seller I've bought 5 turbos from. LKOOs like its been sitting a while, but other than that KOay. All of the ones I've gotten from him have been accurately described.



Edit. well ---- it ended with buy it now...nm

HX 55

I'm most likely gonna step up to a hx50-55. When I bought my turbo manifold I made sure to get the pro SS manifold that accepts t3 and t4 pattern turbos

edit: I just picked up a hx52. I looked at the hx55 and it had a smaller compressor wheel at 65mm but had a larger exhaust wheel at 78mm. The hx52 has a bigger compressor wheel at 67mm but a smaller yet more manageable 70mm exhaust wheel and a 16cm housing. I believe this turbo and its capabilities is what I was looking for the whole time!
