Twin turbo sizing help.

I toasted the fins on my H1C this week and I am thinking of going to a towing twin turbo set up.

So after do some more research it looks like the Hx35 with the 12cm housing will work fine but im still not sure.

Thinking primary turbo as an hx55 but not sure on sizes.

The question I have is what would be a good size primary turbo to run?

Any help would be appreciated.

Are you reffering to the ht3b or the bht3b turbos? Like this one http://www.citydiesel.net/product_info.php?products_id=85{11}49

I was also throwing the idea of using that one around instead.

Yes that is the turbo he means. I am compiling parts to install my setup right now. He351cw/ht3b (small exhaust housing) for a quick spooling compound set for towing.

I was going to do the same thing and get the parts slowly but with my turbo going out I thought I might as well go for it. I already have a bunch of 3 and 4 inch Mandrell bent 90s.

Old thread I know but I'm kinda wondering what ever got worked out with the twins you were gonna build? My h1c has a gillet 60mm wheel kit on it and a 16cm housing. Thinking I may wanna go twins with a ht3b under it or another turbo after my 4wd swap is done.

Lol. Just looked at your sig. But id still like to hear about it.

Shoot it's been a long time since I was on here. I've been running the hx35-12cm exhaust over the bht3b-26cm exhaust, since around November of 2013. It spools up really quick and keeps egts in check. I like how it runs in my truck. I was daily driving it till February of 2016.
