Default HX50 turbo

Alright guys i found a new hx50 turbo that i was thinking of replaceing the old hx35 with. But i was thinking it would be a lot of turbo to spool, but im new to the diesel world. So i would like to hear you opinions on it. Thanks guys

do you know what the exhaust housing size is ?

you will need to have a set of injectors, a tuned pump, a transmission.... its a decent turbo

WHY ARE YOU YELLING? gonna have to be a little more specific on the semi truck turbo, many out there available so we are gonna have to have something to go on for ya and if its a pulling truck only then a big single is ok, but if it sees any street time, forget about it, gonna be a dog and extra toasty on the egt's

some off of semi trucks will work fine, others will not work at all, i have heard that the cat c7 has a s300 turbo off of it, that would work pretty good on our trucks, the best thing to do is do some research about what you have available and ask around to see whats going to work best for ya! you could also just use your hx35 you have and put an ht3b under it for twins! that works great. oh and just a heads up on the internet if its all caps it means you are yelling
