Well first off a stage 3 on the H1c will make it a hybrid, that would be the best route a s there will be no machining involved, the gains will be the same as doing a hx35/40hybrid but its all bolt on and go with the H1c. You will see more gains with it than just putting on an HX-35. DD

Actually its not, you wont gain squat with just an hx35 just more spool up and higher egt's. With the stage 3 you will gain more air to burn more fuel, try to find a 16cm housing and you will have a nice allaround turbo to handle what ever pump mods you do. DD

Just got an h1e compressor off what I believe to be an 8.3 (forgot to read engine code) with a rod through the block. Taking the compressor, wheel and backing plate was no problem at the junkyard. Save the t-bolt clamps your old ones might break. I paid 15.00 for half the turbo. Just remember the compressor nut is reverse thread..I feel bad I broke the one at the junkyard.

Anyway, swapped the h1e on my h1c stock exhaust housing and it pulls great up top now. Smoke cleared up fully at full throttle. Needs more fuel.
