Not much to post really,the hx35 with a T3 flange is a bolt on item,but you would have to fabricate your own down pipe manifold for the turbo. turbine end plates are available bare and fitting/welding on the flange'd 90 is the tricky part.
Modifying the upper intake is not too tough for the swap either.
The HX35 wastegate is also pressure operated I believe vs your mechanical wastegate.
You may need/want to turn up the fuel also.
Most reports say that the hx40 is a better fit for the 6.5 though-it is offered in a T3 and T4 flange-T3 is what you want for ease of installation.

So how big of a difference does the hx35 make.? Egts? Hp? Intercooler or not?.. I heard the hx 40 was too big for the 6.5l

I have a turbo master and my pump has been turned up.... I put in arp studs and new head gaskets about 10,000 miles ago. Why does The intake have to be modifyed?

Another consideration with HX35 is to get the correct one, I don't work HX's I'm a ATT guy myself but one of the HX's has little performance over the GM, the HX 40 supposed to be a good fit for the 6.5 but not without some work to make it fit. Post 54 page 4 a HX35 guy who did install on not as impressed with HX 35 as he thought the would be read here http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/sho...-and-injectors
War wagon on TTS is running a mechanical IP & ATT which is virtually a remove & replace installation is very pleased with his setup maxxTORQUE article on the A Team Turbo
