Ok, this is what I can find out about all the turbo's that everyone is talking about

HT3B = NT855 is the engine that this turbo goes on, I'm assuming you would not use for a single set up? (part# 3801613)

HX35 = 6BTA out put range 100 280 hp good for a single set up

H1E = 6CTA 8.3 LITTER) the only thing that i can find out that this is the same as a hx40 good for up to 400hp, but I also read that the shafts are junk.

ST50 = KT-1150 K19 ENGINE ) good for 1100 hp

H1C = 6BT 5.9L GOOD FOR UP TO 250 HP

WH1C= 6CT 8.3L same as a HX40 GOOD FOR 400HP

the turbos that I have are ST50, H1C, WH1C, H1E, AND HX30

The questions is, what would be a good twin set up for 400 hp, i just want it to spool really fast. I was thinking of putting on the hx30 and a h1e,

going on a 93

a WH1C is just a waste gated H1C. Its more like a HX35 then a HX40.

How much power you looking to make? A HX30 over a H1E wont support alot of power but will be quick to spool.

well without a goal its kinda hard to pick out a turbo set-up.

Towing? Comp only? High RPM? Low RPM? all these play a role in the turbo set-up.
