[turbotalon1g]

I'd love to find the an HX40 for $2xx with no hotside.

...this turbo was also bought in 2009. Much more cores available at cheaper prices back then.

Holsets are goin to skyrocket just like the 16g cause there will be such a high demand.

Congrats Dave very well done on the old diesel turbo

 

[doubled07]

Awesome job man. Look forward to seeing what else you can do with this setup. Def has more in it!

Going to? People already believe they are worth their weight in Gold with no housing in terrible shape....

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Still wouldnt pay more than 250
For an hx40 core...

 

[JusMX141]

^ I haven't seen them that cheap without wheel damage for three years or more, so unless you have a time machine....

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Well last year there was a certified rebuildable core hx 52 for 250 didn't see the turbine but the comp wheel looked good. That was on ebay.

Big secret if you highlight below....

Holset's font is "Pepsi". The guy who does my decals made it in literally 30 seconds by typing "Holset" in caps and outlining it.

HAHA

Great now to have one made in the size i want, now to just figure out what size.

Inthink i wanna buy that and use it for rebuild experience! Then possibly run it

Edit: just bought it. Too cheap to pass up.

Man that was a nice pass....Can you tell us a little on how you got the car so lite..? My gutted, caged 1g- still is a pig at 2950 ..

 

[lowell]

2950 race weight? CrMo cage?

 

[little-razcal]

I want a 160mph just as bad as a 8s pass, but yeah definitely gonna be a tough one for that! Just sucks I picked up so much more speed in the 1/8th but only 3mph in the 1/4 with being almost 500lbs lighter. Time for some aerodynamics done to the car... my mirror deletes are on their way, next payday ill order the front bumper shutters. Going to frontline this weekend to make some rear defusers for the bumper!

Just imagine putting a 67mm on that thing....

Call up Curt Brown for bearings. They helped him quite a bit.

Thanks! I'm glad to me back behind the wheel again forsure!

 

[laser90]

I don't know why but when I saw the ET I felt the need to yell " In your face B!tch!!!"

 

[wmrcs]

Holy crap! Inspiring!

 

[VisionPaintball]

Dave, wifey, Justin and Ricky make one hell of a team!
Good stuff.

 

[JusMX141]

I do love hanging out with that entire crew....you always have fun, and there's never a dull moment!

Yeah definitely, probably couldn't have done it without them! Also add my wife to the team, definitely couldn't have done it without her! She even clicked in my hood pins for the first pass.

That 9.20 pass was on 37 psi and 70 lbs/min, so once I get the new built tcase in we're going to up the boost to 42 psi, and hope for the best!
