It depends on what you want for power. They are good to around 400HP and even then, drive pressures are a real issue with the HX35 housing.

i did mine with a grinder.i did this so i didnt have to take it off.all you have to do is open up the relief in the bearing housing up(where the wheel sits)to 3.5"bam,done.i love mine,of course i'd love to have a huge one,but mine goes to about 37pis and that's all i need.but its a cooler better 37psi than the stock turbo.it cooled my egt"s down by about 300*
