What if anything is out there in a ts t3 housing that can put down around 600awhp? Thanks

Twin-scroll T3 is starting to become a restriction at the +/- 600whp level. It has nothing to do with the size of the turbine wheel or housing a/r; at some point the housing just can't physically flow enough exhaust through the flange. This is why your big-power turbos are either single-scroll T3 or twin-scroll T4....at some point you have to trade quick spool for horsepower.

He351ve has no chance of fitting in a DSM and keeping the actuator, unless you do some drastic sh**. The Garret actuator is far more robust and easier to control. I'm running it with a stock ECU. The holset turbine is probably more efficient though.
Here's an older thread on the topic....looks like this one's behind a stock rad to boot.Do you have anymore info on the HE351ve car? I'd like to see how it works, as that's probably the only other active vgt car out there.
The thing with that is, notice he isn't using the stock electronic VGT controller. That was jimmy rigged with a mechanical actuator. I believe there would be significantly less space when utilizing the electronic controller. I'm not saying there wouldn't be enough space to use the stock radiator; that I can not speak to, only that it would most likely make things tighter.Here's an older thread on the topic....looks like this one's behind a stock rad to boot.
