anything bigger than the hx40 would have alot of lag and probably lose power but that would be a good setup you can buy downpipes with the hx40 end on ebay for pritty cheap but make shure when you buy the turbo that it has the t3 flange not the t4 otherwise it won't bolt up

Default HX40

The HX40 is cheap for a reason, if you bark it it will break, not a high performance turbo, consider a s300 62/70/13 or 14 combo

i'm leaning torwards a 14cm... the 62/70 will give you plenty of air and drive power. i feel the 14 is a balanced housing. diminishes lag substantially but still flows enough it isn't going to choke the engine up and cause EGT's to be high. 13 would be great for spool but 100 horse sticks with the denney T... EGT's might be a problem

When you lift real quick from full boost teh back pressure surges teh turbo. Its trying to stop the wheel to quick.

Here listen right when I lift off teh throttle here and you can here my turbo bark pretty good.

Yes thats exactly what im talkin about. I mean for the price its not bad if the thing lasts me 6 months i would be tickled pink. But if it flys apart in a week i wont feel to bad because i didnt spend much on it. Know what i mean?
