I found me a cheap HT80 and could I use it with my HX35 in a twin setup, or has anyone used one of these before?

thanks!

 

A HT80 is a huge turbo and would be unpractical for a daily driver. The only reason I could see a use for one would be a sled pulling only truck.

 

Really? Even for the primary in a twin setup? I'd have guessed the '80 to be about the size of an HT3B. No?

A HT60 is generally a little larger than a HT3B. A HT80 is on even a larger frame than the 60's. If you look on Holsets website you'll get a idea of how much larger the 80 series turbos are then the 60's.

For example: 60 specs are 18-22kg in weight and airflow of .95kg/sec
80 specs are 32-50kg in weight and airflow of 1.5kg/sec

 

Holy cow!! Thanks for the info - I'll check out that site.

Length mm 332
Width mm 318
Height mm 300
Smallest Mass kg 32
Largest Mass kg 50
Airflow kg/s 1.5

I guess thats the size of it, what is that compared to say an HT3B?
