hx40
I'm lookingto put a hx40 on my 90 and was woundering if anyone is running one and what's your thoughts on it. And was woundering if the t3 flange will fit on a stock manifold

I run the standard 6 blade HX40. Is it a good cheap turbo. I would probably not buy one new, but I came accross this one cheap. The spool is a little laggy, but plenty tolerable. Works very well for towing, egts are much better than the 60mm H1C. Mine has the common 16cm T3 housing.
The super 40 is supposed to have an improved turbine wheel for better spool.
As long as it is a T3 it should bolt onto the manifold. If your truck is IC, it should be a straight forward swap. There is a 4" DP required though.

I'll quote Philip because he has 1st hand experience with them.
If you do look at HX40's. The only one to buy is a Super HX40. These have the best wheel design of the HX40 line. They are extended tip like the S300 lineup uses. They have a seven blade intake wheel.
Don't waste you time on a 6 or 8 blade HX40.
The Super 40 I have spools just as easy as the HX35 it replaced. Both had 16cm housing on them.
