Thanks for the info.... so you think the best deal would be a hx40. I am foot to the floor all the time now. I plan to put a intercooler in first and try to find a turbo....you don't have one?

I would say a '40 is the easiest to find, and would cost the least to buy. Intercooler is a great move. I dont have an HX40 with me right now, but I think I could find one locally. You could also try some of the Dodge forums, but many of those are converted to a small exhaust housing.

Thanks, what exhaust housing do I need? Is it t4? More I look into it the more questions I have.. I saw some on ebay new from China will they work? If you could get a used one what would it cost roughly? Thanks for the help.

They are a T4, and look for a relatively small one. Like a 17-19sq. cm.
The ebay stuff looks like more of a deal than I can get even.

what size of hot and cold side impeller should they be?
Thanks

nevrenufhp 11-22-2010 06:43 PM

Shoot for a minimal of 58mm impeller. The exhaust side should be pretty big, but not too critical.
This one:
Holset Hx40 Turbocharger T4 Turbo 19cm Non-wastegated - eBay (item 220699409844 end time Nov-26-10 19:23:38 PST)
or this one are both good examples:
Turbo Charger HOLSET HX40W REMAN TURBO CHARGER $649.00 - eBay (item 200385114402 end time Dec-11-10 11:34:21 PST)
If all else, do the freebie mods, test drive it, and see if it gets too hot.

Thanks again, is it important to have a wastegate? Your knowledge:c: is greatly appreciated.

nevrenufhp 11-22-2010 07:56 PM

A W/gate is a great idea, since it's not an OEM specific application. Personally, I would rather have the peace of mind and protection. Sure dont want to overspeed one!


Knowledge? I'm a rookie of rookieness.

You know your stuff....your youtube clips are a good example! I used your site to set the injector pump on my 7.3 idi.
Why should I get a 17-19 cm compressor housing, what is the difference of a smaller or larger one?

nevrenufhp 11-22-2010 08:21 PM

The smaller you get, the quicker it'll spoolup. Too small, and it makes a choke point, but a 17 isnt all that small, and would be a first choice. Last I looked em up, a stock T04 has about that same size of exhaust housing. Be prepared to add more fuel to make use of a bigger & better turbo.
