Holset-ing a DSM

Hey,

I'm a DSM guy looking for a good turbo for a budget build. The Holset HY35, HX35, HE351, and HX40 turbos are starting to be used. Finally people are seeing that Holsets rock.

While most choose to go with the HX35 due to the 12cm^2 (or larger)hotside. I'm looking for a slightly faster spool by using the HY35 with it's 9cm^2 hotside.

For us, the HX35 lets us push 450whp or more on 93 octane gas, and did I mention this is on a 2.0L engine? Spool up is around 3000RPM... LOL but we're reving to 9k so that's fine.

So..... if anyone would like to ship a HY35 my way I'd be much obliged.

-Wes

Welcome to the board. I am a PO of a couple of Turbo Hondas from a few years back. I wonder if they are moving to Holsets, but I don't keep up with that stuff anymore.

You might want to look into the HE341. It's a little smaller than the HE351, but the demand is much lower. Not even the first gen guys want to touch them, which I think is ironic.

hy35 or the he341 will get you going. New turbos are not too expensive either.

I've worked on quite a few DSM Cars, Cant say that I like them much but they can be pretty quick, I'll get a video of one on the dyno at the event this year!
