Hey guys can you offer up thoughts on this turbo?

TD06SL2 turbine wheel in a 7cm housing for a 380hp turbo - it will produce a lot of unnecessary lag and the 20G has never really been impressive. You would be much, much better off buying a 68HTA with TD05H turbine if you could find it. Much more usable power.
To this day I've yet to see a HX35 with a broken shaft or separated turbine head....and I've probably serviced 500 of them or more over 17 years.And most of them in the BEP bolt-on hotsides melted turbine wheels and exploded.
That's what I was pointing out in the second paragraph.Correct me if I’m wrong but you are saying that running a t3 hot side would be better for the longevity of a Holset respectively?
Again, I've never seen a HX35 turbine fail in any housing. I've even seen them take a foreign object strike to the point of having no inducer left and the shaft was still turning under it's own power. That doesn't mean it isn't possible, but when you consider the volume I've handled to have never seen such an example the odds of survival are pretty decent. Only area it lacks is flow...most accurately-logged airflow I've ever seen generated from a DSM-flanged HX35 I've built or serviced was 56 lb/min at 35psi on kill mode, so you're shorting yourself out of about 40-50 horsepower by using DSM-flanged over T3 but that isn't necessarily a bad thing depending how the turbo is being used. In reality the best HX35 is actually a HY35 as it comes from the factory with a single-scroll T3 housing attached and despite having a slightly-smaller turbine wheel it can still handle the full 60-62 lb/min compressor potential and loves lots of boost.What are your thoughts about the BEP hot side for an HX35? Is it sufficient? Or does the same case apply as above?

Thanks for the info. So if I am running an HX35 with the BEP housing, would it make sense to switch to the t3 hotside for a little more power?
Thanks for the info!

It would make even more sense to sell your entire turbo and buy a HY35.
I've been considering an upgrade to a Holset turbo...is this HY35 a good option because of the 12 blade exhaust wheel and the 7 blade compressor wheel they seem to come with? Does that provide quick spool and good flow? Why not a twin scroll? Just learning more about these. Gonna have to change my entire setup...manifold to T3 flange, downpipe, oil return, etc...In reality the best HX35 is actually a HY35 as it comes from the factory with a single-scroll T3 housing attached and despite having a slightly-smaller turbine wheel it can still handle the full 60-62 lb/min compressor potential and loves lots of boost.
- Spool/response is betterWhy? I feel like I should know this, but what’s the improvement over an hx35??
Never really impressive!? You're crazy! Lol.TD06SL2 turbine wheel in a 7cm housing for a 380hp turbo - it will produce a lot of unnecessary lag and the 20G has never really been impressive. You would be much, much better off buying a 68HTA with TD05H turbine if you could find it. Much more usable power.
