Holy **** that thing's big. You gotta be pretty close to the point where the pistons and such just block the airflow, and you might as well relocate the injectors to the turbo inlet and hook the transmission input shaft to the rotor... :D

Mine is bigger than yours... Garrett GT35R... being pushed by a liter more displacement though... but still ;)

I can't see what size Holset that is... but it sure is pretty. What amount of boost are you going to run? That looks like the same Tial wastegate I got.

Edit: BTW... I'm not trying to talk smack... just trying to be funny... you're going to have a really nice setup there.

Dude this is larger than a GT35R. This is GT40 territory sans ball bearing.

Its a holset H1E which is a Holset HX40 size - 18cm housing.

Going to run 8.7 psi (spring in gate) pressure on the street/daily and control it down to 14 - 16psi for the big rips.

This same turbo on an E30 M20 2.5L made ~410wtq... :)

Hehehe... I've had HX55 and HX60's in my hand before and they seem slightly bigger than the turbo I have for my kit, but not by much.

I'm running 14.7psi on the street and want to run ~2 bar on the track/drag strip. Doing some engine work to help facilitate that.
