use the mitsu flanged .55 ar bep housing it is plenty big enough for the 8 blade holset and will spool just a little quicker

Okay cause I have heard of people putting down big numbers on the Mitsu flange.

you will like the .55 better for the 8 blade and you can get big numbers and quick spool (depending on your setup)
FP intake, FP turbine housing, Holset turbo....a recipe for big numbers from a bolt-on turbo!wanted to post this here to let ppl know dreams can come true.

Dyno challange: Here's your chance to claim fame within the Holset threads here. Hoping a couple others (wisemen?) or current holset users would help pony up some cash towards this. I'm willing to put up $20 towards a dyno pull(s) for a least one current Holset user on a second Garrett turbo setup. The Garrett turbo must be as close as possible blades/exhaust housing size to the Holset on the users car. Same car. Same tune. Same boost pressure. Different turbos. (ie dyno the Holset, swap to the Garrett, dyno the Garrett) You don't have to go for broke and blow it up running crazy boost levels.
Said user would also be responsible for having access to the Garrett setup. So, if you have such a turbo lying around and it matches up well in specs to the Holset, then you'd be a good candidate.
What about housing size?. . . HUGE factor. Of course a bolton hx35 (even the 7blade) won't match a larger turbine housing fp3052 with the same perameters up to about choke likely. We all should know that. The critical area of each housing has been clearly illustrated. . . It's an apples to oranges comparison if you're looking at who has what differences; since turbine housings are more easily interchangeable and are definately a conntrolled perameter like boost and tune. So is it a compressor to compressor comparison? or a hotside to hotside comparison?
Edit: ninja editing FTW. . . With the housing size. . . I'll contribute $20.

Is it possible for me to stuff my HX 40 into my old fp3052 hot side?
Not without extensive machining. I've been putting holsets into T3 housings for a little while and just topday an Hx40 showed up with a gt35r turbine housing and there's a lot more machining that will need to go into one of these style housings to make it work compared to using a normal garrett T3 housing
The backing plate on the tuirbine that keeps oil from getting in the exhaust and gives it a place to burn off is about half as tall on the BB style CHRA'a and this places the turbine major blades in a different location so the entire opening of the volute needs moved and that's in addition to boring the 2 diameters and machining the curve between the 2 sizes correctly..
It's not something i would recomend and would say if you want to use a T3 style housing to start with a T3 STage III and machine that or something else that's similar froma garrett journal bearing turbo.
