yes,It will
.I prefer the 12,but maybe its the elevation,4800 ft and i usually go up from there. i tested a 12, 14,18.5 towing uphill,the 12 worked the best but my hx came off a 98 24v, had a smaller compressor wheel [54] ? than most hx,s . the smaller housing only seemed a problem to me when lots of boost/fuel combined with high rpm, around 3000. like when going 80+ mph. i rarely drive that way. depends on use,how you drive. I tow alot uphill .we run an auto with an 18.5 and alot of fuel,play truck,i like the 18.5 on it, not nearly as strong as my converted ford.
