Holset Turbos, PART 4

[dsm-onster]

There's already more than enough murders, rapes, and thefts in the world too . . . Any diesel truck forum catering to cummins is a great place to pick up a used hx35 or Big H1C or WH1C (they all perform very close to each other).

what all differnt a/r housings do the holset hx35-40 come with factory ! the bep bolt on housing seems to be the simplest but i don't wont it to become a restriction.

If you call 650whp in the smallest housing a restriction yeah your right it will restrict you
All of the housings will make power it just depends on the setup around it. Holset turbos which came with holset housings obviously don't go by a/r sizing they go by cm. A hx35 will most likely have a 12-16cm t3 housing and a hx40 will either have a t3 16-19cm T3 or t4 housing. They are usualy divided which is better for flow and spool when mated with a divided housing.

well if i did decide to run a stock holset t3 hotside what cm housing would be the closest to .6- a/r !

dsm-onster, so if i run a bep housing then the restriction would be my stock 2g exh manifold !
i just wonder how much boost this turbo will handle on 93+ 50/50 mix of meth/water.

the parts i have orderd are....

pte 1000cc injectors
comp 101200 or fp2 cams
new fuel lines
255 pump
meth kit
i still need a 1000 cfm intercooler
and piping.

looking at a few hx35's and 2 hx40's
also i will be burning my own chips !

12cm

If you were to run a BEP .55 a/r bolt-on housing the manifold and housing would be restrictive.

i just wonder how much boost this turbo will handle on 93+ 50/50 mix of meth/water.

It depend on if you're going with the HX35 or HX40 and other mods you have done, but I say mid to high 20s for the HX40 if the rest of your engine can take it.

also i will be burning my own chips !

You need either DSM Link or an burn chip to run with an afc.

It actually might not be billet it's hard to tell. It's not BRAND new but it's pretty close has a couple little things but it's in great condition with no shaft play and if the wheel isn't billet it's really clean and def a great buy thanks to b00stedtalon2 big time. Mine doesn't say volvo on it either like the rest

It's definitely. And your welcome

 

[Slippi84]

Sweet I thought it was billet thanks for the ocnfirm. Should make a bad ass setup

Better pics so you can see the fitment with the jhracing manifold

Two things that I was curious about is how close the wastegate on the passenger side will come to the compressor houisng and how low the outelt on the turbo is to the motor mount

Wastegate flange is like 3cm's away from it. Plenty of room for the clamp.

The outlet can be as close or far as you want it to be since you can clock the compressor housing. The outlet isn't on top of it or anything, its next to it. I made it as close the mount as I could so I had more room elsewhere.

I'd say you could run the stock radiator but you can't since the left wastegate will be right in front of the outlet for the radiator.

^ Nice

 

[selmerguy]

That turbo is large. I love it. It takes up almost the same space as the block......

The 2g manifold is always a restriction. The BEP turbine housing is good for 500whp with the hx35 turbine wheel and 650 with the hx40 turbine wheel. The hx35 compressor wheel can't push much more than 500whp, since it is only a little bigger than a 50-trim with respect to flow.

Does anyone have an hx40 with a billet comp wheel? I have a 7 blade 40 here that looks like a machined billet wheel.

 

[JWoodley]

Billet wheels are available, but hard to find. I've only found them on 35/40 hybrids from diesel shops.

 

[GORBS88]

I finally got the hx-40 back to the track after blowing tranny at the last 1/8th mile. This time i went to the quarter and am pretty pleased with the results as this is another STOCK tranny and STOCK motor.



60 ft 1.758
1/8th 7.361
MPH 99.07
1/4 11.110
MPH 132.56

This was done at 33psi or so.

Had troubles getting traction off the line so with my normal (low) 1.6 60ft that i run i would get a solid 10 sec run from this, also theres more boost to be had as we all know these holsets love high boost.
This was also done at 1700ft.

 

[dsm-onster]

Great! so all holsets are showing mid to low 11 second runs. Whoever runs what ever turbo, this is good, considering the investment.

You can clearly tell the compressor wheel has been machined out of a billet, you can see the fine machining marks on it.

 

[dsm-onster]

Mike, you could stand to benefit from an intake manifold upgrade. You'll get more power for the tune your at and this would put you in the 10s too, considering how close you are. From my experience every tenth you gain at the 60-ft you gain 3-4 tenths at the 1/4 mile. IMHO, a SMIM and a better launch and your looking at under 10.5sec!

Very nice, thats one of the best/if not the best time I've seen on a bolt on housing hx-40. That mph is plenty good enough for a high 10 sec slip.

Carl at GV ran 11.0 on his, best trap was 128 though. 132 is moving, put that thing in the 10s!

That's excellent Mike!
What FMIC r u using to cool down all that air from your HX40?
Clutch?
Turbine Housing?

 

[GORBS88]

Hey guys thanx for all the good words..

I KNOW the car could of run 10's but the traction was holding me back. I dont have a cage in the car yet so once i get that sorted out i am going to go back and go for 10's as is, then mabe look into SMIM for some more, then more boost. BUT this is on a stock 240,000 motor so not sure how long it will last..

I am not using the BOLT on housing i am using the T-3 .70 housing and a ACT 2900 clutch with ACT flywheel,and just a ebay FMIC.
My mods are all up to date in profile.

 

[T9S1i]

How is spool with the t3 housing?


Great mph for the time! You should be able to hit a 10 for sure with some traction!
