Turbo
I know someone who has a hx 35 turbo with a 16 cm opening. This turbo is nonwastegated. He is selling it for 80 bucks. I have an exhaust brake and dont want to loose it. Will the nonwastegated turbo give me a problem? Is this a good deal or should I wait for a wastegated turbo? help

I'm going to tell it like it is...The Hx35 16cm, is not going to do much or anything for you. In addition, an HX35 ( whatever the housing size is) should not be run safely over 32psi. The fact that it is not wastegated, tells me it may have already been run in excess????<br>The old saying is "if its too good to be true, its probably no good!"<br><br>Save your $80.00 towards a PDR HX-40.<br><br>Steve<br><br><br>

Re:Turbo
the turbo is brand new and never been used. I now run 37 at wot and I would think that the bigger housing would lower psi. I dont know. Do you still think I would run 37 psi with the 16 cm compared to the 12 cm?

Re:Turbo
On my stock turbo, does the wastegaste plug in to something? When I install the new turbo that is non wastegated, will I have to block anything?

Re:Turbo
The only thing you will have to block would be the hose comeing from the pipe that goes into the intercooler. I think thats where the 24v WG from. it should be a small metal or rubber line.<br>DM01
