Anyone ever run a hx30 ??

[damageinc0318]

Buddy of mine gave me a old hx30 , Has no shaft play and looks great. I was wondering if anyone ever ran one and assuming its similar to a hx35 by the way of mounting and whatnot

Info I've seen in the past puts it around the potential of a 16G with much more difficulty concerning installation. Nobody wants to buy manifolds, oil lines, and fab a custom o2 housing to install a turbo that does the same as one that bolts directly on.

The chart I saw shows it maxing out at 370 CFM.

I'm not sure how accurate that is since that would put it at roughly the same flow as a 13g.

*edit* Found out on the Cummins forum it is rated for no more than 240hp.

wow 370 CFM thats not even worth messing with . I got 2 talons one has a 14b the other one has the t67 garrett. I got enough stuff laying around to fab up the hx30 on my stock talon but if it cant even out flow the the 14b then it will make a good paper weight

As Justin said, it's too small to make it worth it, but found some good info on it here. http://www.4btswaps.com/forum/showthread.php?10514-HX30-specs

It says anywhere from 36-45 lbs/min so 14b to 16g size.

*edit* Found out on the Cummins forum it is rated for no more than 240hp.

And just wanted to point out for future reference, if they rated it for 240hp on a diesel it would be completely different on a gas engine. I.E. HX-35s can put down 500+ whp on a DSM but are found on a 215 HP diesel.

you would need to be very careful running a hx30 that turbo comes stock on 90 through 99 cummins. with the right parts in a cummins they will make 40 pounds of boost with no problem. if your going to run that turbo i give u mad props for it, but you will need strong internals get a bigger head gasket and some arp head studs those are needed no matter what.

False, the HX-30 was never found on Dodge trucks.
