Just a little update and some progress pictures of my 16^2 WH1C set up.

mock up on engine stand.

Looks great! I think I saw you pulling into King Motorsports last weekend- I was in Kenny's 1gb.

Was not me LOL. I work weekends. I did how ever talk to you and kp116 at automotions this year. I was one of the people that was staying at Mnt olympus right across the street from you guys (red and carbon fiber evo8, blue nissan 350z)
 
He just said, and you quoted, that the he341 has the 7blade hy35 compressor wheel. And the he351 has the 7blade hx40 compressor wheel :confused:. . .

I understand that. I was asking the diameter of the compressor wheel between the he341 and the he351. I dont know the numbers(diameters) between what hy35 is and hx40 is. :|

THE SIZE

You can find that on the first page of any of the Holset threads:

"HY35: We don't know if te hy35 turbine wheel and housing is enough to reache the 60lb/min potential of the 56mm 7blade compressor."

"HX40: The 7 and 6 blade hx40 is called the super40 and has the 60mm compressor inducer."

Does king have an awd dyno?
also is kennys car a red 1gb with slicks? I remember seeing that car in the dells the last two years.
 
those of you feeding your hx40 with a -3 line, how are you connecting it to your turbo? i cant find a -3 to 12x1.5 adapter to connect the line to the turbo. I guess i could to a -3 to -4 adapter then to a -4 to 12x1.5 adapter but im worried that the manifold will interfere. any insight or even pictures is appreciated

I had my -3 feed line custom made so it has a -4 connector on the end.
 
I called ATP turbo and they said they can't do that?
 
16cm2 = around 1.10 a/r
18cm2 = around 1.30 a/r

With either of those housings mounted to an open-flanged T3 manifold you'd have all of the lag as if you were running a single-scroll 1.1 a/r or 1.3 a/r housing on your turbo.

The only benefit would be turbine flow, and as Dave has now proven the T3 .70 a/r BEP housing is fully capable of maxing out the HX40 compressor on a 2.0L 9.0:1 engine. The only way you may need more turbine flow / less backpressure is if you had a stroker or very high compression ratio.

Now one of those housings properly set up with a twin-scroll T3 manifold could rightfully outspool AND outflow the .70 BEP housing.

how well do you think my TS setup with a 16cm2 7 blade HX35 on my 8.3:1 will spool up? im hoping for 30+ by 3500 rpm

my open T3 8 blade in a bored out .48A/R 2.5" 4 bolt spooled up 30+ psi @ 4K
 
I would guess 30+psi by 3.5k in 4th and 3.7-3.8k in 3rd depending on cam selection etc. Before 4k should be a safe bet in any gear but 1st and 2nd
 
Finally, after all these years, I purchased a holset. I found a deal locally for an 8-blade HX35.

Came in the mail today. Looks great! has no feelable shaft play and the wheel spins freely.

It does, however, make a light "ching" when you spin the compressor wheel. Is this normal of a holset without oil in the housing?

I'm getting the comp cover bead blasted and most likely polished
 
Is the turbine housing off/loosened? If it is, the "ching" might just be the heat shield behind the turbine wheel, which tightens into place when the turbine housing is torqued on.
 
They are not cataloged or displayed anywhere online at this time- for more information, get in touch with Bill @ Bullseye Power (231-571-8424, [email protected]) and state that you were referred by myself or TalonDave from DSMTuners. I'm not in a position to release any pricing or technical info to the public aside from what I've said above.

Results will soon follow comparing the standard 6-blade 60mm HX40 compressor to this beautiful piece. Although, Dave is going to need some larger injectors before we go much further so any additional airflow at this time will most likely result in the boost level being lowered slightly....but that will make for a more efficient setup- the same airflow at a lower boost level means a cooler air charge and a much faster car. ;)
