44psi? no he did 650+ at 40psi.Wasnt it like 640+whp at around 44psi with the bolt on housing hx40 that someone made a little while back? That turbo was running under 50psi making that much power in the bolt on housing. I cant wait to run one.
Who the hell's charging you that much? Does it need both wheels replaced or something?im happy with the 40 but to spend 400 to rebuild Id rather replace with something new
44psi? no he did 650+ at 40psi.
He went back to the dyno and made a little higher at 44psi : http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/dyno-talk/334299-holset-hx40-makes-685hp-584tq.html
I'm fairly certain that's not just an hx40 record, but a .55 a/r housing record. You can get that same housing with a t3 flange or MHI flange. I dont' know any t350/o-p-q-trim turbine wheel (t350 is what FP uses for their high powered turbos) turbo to ever do that on a BEP .55 housing or any bolton turbo to ever do this high. The hx40 turbine wheel is a serious wheel to put that kind of airflow through the small bep housing. What can it do with a bigger housing? . . .
gorf said:I just moved to a 20G from E3 16G. I just started trying to tune it so I am no guru yet.
My first impressions, the 20g actually starts spooling quicker than the e3, but reaches full boost a couple hundred rpm later. The 16g is known for hitting boost and power band all at once. The 20g starts pulling at lower RPM and just keeps pulling! This makes it much more streetable than the e3 and gives more HP potential. Cost - look for a used one, there is guy on this board that rebuilds and sells 20G's for under $500.
is that on a td05 or tdo6 20g? Im looking into the 20g as well.
YEA BUT LIKE YOU SAID IF IM ONLY REVVING TO 7K ,I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER TO FIND A TURBO THAT SPOOLS UP FASTER SO THEN I HAVE A BIGGER POWERBAND DONT YA THINK?
