    'Quick' Main Bearing Replacement

    At that point with all the work arounds to keep the motor in, why not just pull it and do it right. Probably not going to loose much time and effort.To answer your question, I don't see why you couldn't do that.

    3582 fp housing vs hta red

    When someone says FP red and dsm in the same sentence the first thing you think is.....Whether its the new or old version.At any rate I clearly understood what Justin was saying.

    4G63 head gasket replacement

    It's not going to matter what turbo or psi or hardware you have, if you don't know what your doing and have a shitty tune, any head gasket is going to fail. Don't always listen to others who think they know, sit back, think about what your doing and make an educated decision. Just turning up the...

    6 bolt swap non cruise throttle cable

    Yes, a 2g it what you want. But.....1g will also work. I run a 1g non-cruise cable and it works fine. I am sure someone can chime in on the difference, whether it's lenght, connections, etc.

    Compound Turbo Thread

    Any of you guys that are running holsets worried about boost on the top turbo? Most holsets don't even wake up until +30psi on a single application. So I would imagine the same would be applicable to an extent.I have had both the 35 and now a 40 and for each turbo that was true, I was...

    16g turbo bore

    You can't bore out the hot/cold side to "make" them a 20g and NOT change the wheels. You are better off getting a bastard 20g cold side setup (cover and wheel combo)

    Custom holset T3 & T4 turbine housings

    I understood, they were talking about putting a hx35 12cm TH on the 40 to get faster spool, may not be 3200, and the same top end, but it came across that way.This brings me back to the topic of A/R conversions for TS turbine housings. There seems to be a lot of info out there and...

    Exactly.If that were the case who would want/need a different street turbo if you could get a 40 to spool at 3200 and pull 70lb/min?

    Custom holset T3 & T4 turbine housings

    With a 16cm^2 t3 housing on an hx40 6blade I see 20psi by 3900rpms and 37psi at 4800rpms. I agree, don't see why you would need anything but the stock divided housings.

    Custom holset T3 & T4 turbine housings

    Besides the BEP bolt on .55 a/r housing has anyone reached the limits of the housings that are currently available now? Don't quote me but wasn't Dave still seeing gains in the T3 .70 housing?Good idea? Yes, can't wait to see where this goes.

    Holset turbo without BEP Housing?

    Full T3 TS on a billet 6blade hx40 here and the flow and spool is great! I made the HP in my avatar with this setup on e85. 30psi by 4150k or something like that, and almost 38psi shortly after.Also, as said before this thread is ridiculous!

    ^^nope.I made 550awhp on a 255 intank and a 044 inline with an hx40 (38psi) and BM1550'sDepending on what you tune with I would go as big as you can. Hi z 2150s, I know it's hard to find 1680's the last time I checked.

    30psi+ Br7Es @ .019", 18* peak (help with misfire)

    Have you checked your fuel pressure regulator for leaks? It may be bleeding off a tiny bit of pressure, causing a sudden lean out and popping. I've had this exact situation happen and also thought it was spark blowout.Also I highly doubt your making 550HP (especially to the wheels) on that...

    Holset HX40 6 Blades specs

    Holset HX40 6 Blades specs

    Justin, I have an hx40 that came of a 8.3L cummins (tractor) from 2007. Specs are 7 blade (57mm inducer). I have also read on some desiel forums about this turbo, although it's apparently more rare.

    FWD GST swap to a AWD GSX? Basic [Merged 2-07]

    you should be able to use your struts from your gst, although spring rate will be a touch lighter than they should be. I have never noticed on mine.I know for sure autos have different rear end gearing ratios and the auto rear end will not work with a mt tranny and transfer case.

    E85 goo - this time with an attitude

    I don't think this will be completely solved anytime soon. This has been going on for years (although not to this extent that I've seen). People have tried all kinds of "fixes", with the problem still remaining. I don't think it's as simple as add this or take away that.
