8 blade HX35- 527wp/487tq

Mine also spools extremely slow. I get 25-30psi by 5500rpm. Its most likly the wrong manifold set-up. I wonder if this effects output of the turbo if it effects spool so much?

Hey, are you sure you have a 12cm ex housing? I got a WH1C that has a 20cm housing, but it looks just like a 12cm, and I'm getting spool results just like you.

12cm is stamped into it so I assume its 12cm. Also thats what it was listed as. Are you using an open manifold also? Also my compressor is for sure a 7-blade hx-35 as I have replaced the wheel when I rebuilt it.

Hmm, thats wierd it spools that slow. I am running a sfp t4 manifold with a t3 adaptor. It is sort of divided, but the runners are paired wrong, and the wg passage isn't divided.
 
Dose the 8 blade holset Hx35 spool faster then the 7 or 6 blades Hx35? it seems, the more the blades the quicker it will spool i suppose. I am still debating/ trying to understand holsets. i want to daily drive my car and road race. could this turbo be perfect for what i am looking for? did not mean to hijack the threat but im new to the all things holset. :D and congrats on 500+ hp on your hx35 bro. real nice...
 
I don't know about the other hx35s, but I know my setup would suck for roadracing. It's pretty laggy. I'm sure it you got the Dsm backhousing it would spool quicker but Im not sure. When I had a 16g that thing spooled instantly it seemed and made decent power on 28-30lbs.
 
I'll get back to you later.

I really hope you do. :thumb:

Just to clear up any miscommunication here, I am not against Holset's I had one on my old DSM (sold a few months ago) it had a HX35 bolton i got for $400 with feed & return lines.

The performance was awesome, it wasn't comparable to the 16G spool but I'll tell you this that thing moved, before it left I had the best tune I've ever had on that car with boost only at 28psi spike to 25psi. It had an internal gate which I believe held its performance back.

When I make my comments on here, its because I feel people are exaggerating which misleads others and I know its not what I'm here for, also others get that syndrome where they believe something is better than it really is.

I never got to dyno or track my car like I wanted to, and from the results others have presented I can say that my car felt like that and others that have driven my car would say that is believable.

I got a new auto for $200 because i wanted a nicer daily and it was dirt cheap, I've sworn to keep it 16G, but I would love to build a 2.3 and TS HX35 setup and I believe it would keep the response with a lot better top end.

Back OT, do you think it will keep making power with more boost?
Have you looked into the HX35/40 hybrid?

Im sure it will. Im gonna stick to this turbo till it blows then look at my options. For now, I'm gonna try to dial the car in for an event coming up soon down here. The 11.50 class.
 
I was under the impression that fwd dsm's were dynoed in 3rd since that is the closest to 1:1. I seen u did it in 4th. Which is the proper gear to be dynoed in for a fwd? I too have a hx35 getting dynoed this coming week.

I havent checked this in a while but if you havent figured out yet 3rd gear wont work on the dyno at all. If you listen closely you can hear the tires spin when I dynoed in 4th. I had to lower the tire pressure to get them to hook. There is no way you would get an accurate reading in 3rd with the amount of wheelspin
 
Damn man I wish I had an awd dyno close to me. I would really like to see what its putting down before I remove and sell this set-up. The closest place is buschur and everytime I call there I get a bad vibe from them, like there far better then you could ever be... Thats the only deterring factor there. I like what they have done and everything, just the attitude sucks.
