I believe that they are saying the 6 & 7 blade would be an upgrade for both the 8 blade 35 and 40 wheels but I don't see where you figure the 7 blade flows more than the 6 blade is where I'm confused.

And the bep housing is much smaller than the housings designed for the hx35 turbine.
Basically the only flaw with the hybrid other than the 10% rule is just the BEP turbine hsing according to what you're saying?

Sweet97 claims he was still running high 11's with the BEP hsing on his hybrid,so based on your conclusion are we saying that his car would have run better with a bigger Turbine hsing? If so then this turbo was not so bad after all as you previousy claimed. Just was not putting out the 65+lbs as was quoted with this turbine hsing.
