Thanks for the info. The compound setup is desired because I want to build boost at low RPM for tight and technical courses without needing to shift. Do you think the turbos are too close to the same size for a compound setup even with the compressor and turbine modifications? I basically tried...

Wanna make more flares and sell them?

I know that some were imported into Japan (I'm assuming privately), but is this video suggesting that they were sold there? Would probably help if I could understand what they are saying in the video.Threw this video of the 1G GSR 4 on here for fun too.

Not trying to be a dick, but I'm surprised no one has told you to search yet. There are soooooo many different options for making 500+ hp. There is no one best way if that's what you're expecting to be spoon fed. Spend some time looking through build threads on here, youtube, and your favorite...

These manifolds have some of the worst WG locations I have seen. (Where the WG runner connects to the rest of the manifold) The designer must not understand flow characteristics.

This is the kind of stuff I was asking about in my previous posts. You answered my question without even knowing it.

Accessories like lenses and tips or anything else that you use with your welder that doesn't normally come with the welder itself.

Thanks for the recommendations but I'm wanting to know what to get with the welder, not which welder to get.

Sorry if this is a bad thread to ask this in, but I didn't think it was worth starting a new one. I've been using a MIG for years and now I'm going to be getting TIG soon. I think I'm set on getting a Miller Syncrowave 200. Anyway, my question is, what all should I get with it for accessories...

I was going by the Holset FAQ thread on here. "The stock hx35 12cm^2 twinscroll turbine housing is a t3 flange housing. This mated to a NON-divided runner manifold has produced a 132mph trap speed with a full weight 1g AWD. This is about 600whp. So the flow is there with the stock housing if...

Thanks for the input. Very good points & ideas. I would love to design a manifold like that eventually. I know of some foundries around where I live, so I might have to talk to them about it someday. As long as people are using a smaller Holset housing like my 12cm, spool should be pretty good...

Exactly what I was thinking. I really gotta throw the head on my block so I can mock stuff up.

Thanks for the info and pictures. That helps a lot since my engine isn't assembled right now. Confirmed my idea on how to use the bolts for mounting too (not represented in my design above). I think I can make some adjustments in the design to make it work.

This is for the cheap guys out there that want to run an HX35 or HX40 with their stock manifold, stock Holset twin scroll housing, and stock Holset internal wastegate. This isn't an ideal setup to really utilize these turbos to their full potential, but it could be a great stepping stone...

The job shop I worked at got kind of slow in the winter, so were willing to take on small projects. Look for places with laser, or punch, or plasma, or waterjet, and press brake machines. Most brackets shouldn't require a mill. Simple stuff like brackets can be ran through engineering and put...

Call around and google "Job Shops" in your area.

What tire size was Kiggly using with the 8" wheels and 10" wheels though?

The point of going to a 9" wide wheel would be to run 275/50-15 tires. It would be silly to stretch 235/60-15 onto them for drag racing.The type of tires I've had in mind for this are M&H Street & Strip.

yeah more grip is mainly the point. And looking for some pro & cons. I could see weight being a major con with the wider wheels & tires. Weld wheels are pretty damn light though.

Sorry but you need to search/read more if you expect to do this build yourself. The stuff you're asking has been asked and gone over a million times.

Weld Racing has some that could work. Otherwise they could be custom ordered.

Disclaimer: I'm not necessarily going to run this purposed wheel/tire setup, I'm just wondering what if. Also ignore fender rubbing. "Poking" as the stance crowd says, is fine with me. I'm more worried about rubbing the inner side of the wheel wells, brakes, and suspension.The norm seems to...

my hx40 came with a 17cm t4 on it

What year and model Hyundai did you get that valve cover from? Haven't seen that style used yet. What type of 4G63 do you have it on anyway?

500hp is NOT maxing out an HX35

Any of those will get you to 500hp. Sounds like you should read a lot more before buying one though.

Short answer, yes you can.

Looking for specific specs on my HX30: 3537886 Only thing I can find is the service kit #: 3575205

Well I'm gonna be running an HX30 with a 6cm single scroll housing and an hx40 with a 18cm^2 housing @ around 30-35 psi. I have that stuff right now, so I'm running it, We'll see how it performs.Edit: -Meant 30-35 psi overall, not just 30-35 psi on the hx40. -Brought my turbos home and...

I've been thinking about using a Garrett housing too since I've seen them on hx40's before. Just haven't look into it very much yet. What would be the ideal AR size for a goal of roughly 600hp?

Ohh that makes sense. Maybe I'll just try the housing that's already on it until I find a big single scroll. There's gotta be something out there, even if machining is needed.I'm not sure if my hx30 is 40 or 44mm. I'm thinking it might be 40mm. I don't have my turbos at home so I can't check...

Isn't the .70AR housing enough to max out an HX40? Maybe I'm remembering wrong.Is there a bigger single scroll housing available that will work on an HX40? I don't really want to use a twin scroll housing if it's not going to be used in twin scroll form.Where did you get a 12cm^2...

I'm still in the planning stages of my compound setup. I have an hx30 with a single scroll 6cm housing (non wastegated) and an hx40 that currently has a big twin scroll housing on it (T4 18cm^2 IIRR). I've been thinking about using a BEP .70AR housing on the HX40 instead. For wastegates I plan...

Thanks guys! That eases some worries.

OK thanks. I'll have to dig them out and see if there's markings.

I have my engine taken apart currently for a rebuild and during that time moved to a different house. During the move, the connecting rod caps for my Eagle rods got mixed up.How screwed am I? Is there a way to tell which one goes with what?

Does anyone have more info on this 2G? SEXY BEAST - DSM GERMANY ECLIPSE - YouTubeSorry if this is posted in the wrong section. Wasn't sure where to put it.

15x7 slipstreams are very common on 1g's & 2g's. Most seem to get the 15x7 +40 and then use small spacers, around 3mm.

I found a pair of Cobra Imola (1999) racing seats for pretty cheap, but one of them has a cracked plastic piece where the shoulder harness goes through. Anyone know if and where to get a replacement?

Very nice! What angles did you cut the straight pieces at for the collector? Did you have to make a jig to cut it?
