VGT or HX40?
I want to do a new turbo in my 89 because the stock one aint worth sh*t. My question is, Should i put a Holset HX40 with a smaller exhaust housing on it? Or a VGT (variable geometry turbo)? Oh and how much am i looking to spend on this? AKA what is cheaper?

you might be best off doing a GDS 60mm upgrade for your turbo with a 14cm housing for around 250$ and push 40 lbs of boost!! oh yea and it sounds sweet!!:tu:

Oh coool thanks:jump:
|
i found a super hx 40. what are the dimensions i want?
|
I have a HX40 with a 14cm housing off an HX35 thats been machined out to fit over the HX40 wheel. I love it, before that my old truck ran a S300 varient.
I've never run the VGT but alot of guys are doing great things with them.

If it's in good shape, some in and out play is OK and a very tiny bit of side to side is acceptable, very little. Defiantly should not touch the housing. Also make sure it has a 16cm housing.

i run the super 40 with 16cm i really like it

I love my VGT. Does over 50psi on my 89 but I keep it under 40 since 40-50 isnt much difference and is just hot air. Dont worry about drive pressure, I can get more boost than drive press out of mine sometimes. (it IS possible, PSI does not = flow, just restriction of the intake)
