ok guys i got my WH1E bac kto my house today. and.... noticed the exhaust flange that bolts up to the manifold is alot larger then the standard 5.9 turbo. so what do i have to do to mount this thing up. do i need to fab up an adapter plate? or do they make one? or does some one make a new turbine houseing for the WH1E (hx40) that has our style flange on it?




thanks-karl

 

I believe htturbo makes an adaptor, but its pricey.

 

yea thats what i just came across. they want like 150 bucks. looks like im fabbing my own up. i'll post sum pics incase anybody else needs one. i mite beable to hook ya up

 

I thought it was pricey

 

ok guys made me up an adapter today. only took me about 5 hours. alot better then dumping 150 bucks. well here sum pics of it. let me know what u think. i plan on tapping it for pyro, and adding a few ribs to it for extra support. i do jump the truck, so i dont need that thing ripping off

 

Looks good to me.

 

thanks wannadiesel

 

Good ole' T3 to T4 flange. What size is the exhaust housing?

 

its a 19cm. i know everybody says i should ditch the turbo, but im planning on towing a pretty heavy mud truck behind it so the bigger turbine mite be nice for those long hills. do u know where i can find a 16cm? if the 19 is to laggy

 

you can buy the adapter on ebay for $55

i'm pretty sure it's the same thing

 

This definately is not a towing charger. Play truck only, more of a door stop, but if you don't have much in it, you might contact a Cummins/Holset dealer to price a 16cm t3 housing for it. Good luck finding a 16 housing for a hx40 used, ain't gonna happen. Everybody that has picked up a doorstop hx40-19 or h1e-19 new/ebay or junkyard is looking for a 16 housing to make it a useable charger.

 

well i work next to a cummins dealer so i'll checkthat out. but y wouldn't it be good for towin?figured super low egts and y good for a play truck? if its a lagster? my towing is mostly gonito be highway, like nj to florida, or nj to mich. with a trailer full of quads or a truck. please explain sum more. thanks
