hx50= LAG *****... it would work good in a twin setup... but just a single.. you would have to be pushing a LOT of fuel to spool that thing.. fill out your sig so we know what you all have done to your truck

bro you will need alot more than that to spool that turbo imo a 62/74/14 would be a decent suggestion for u also get some injectors

assuming yall are talking about the 22cm housing ones... the only way to make a hx50 very streetable is to get the 14cm exhaust housing. (making it from a 67/78/22 to a 67/78/14)
