Thanks. Thread jack complete.

Holset hx35's can come in many variations, I believe anywhere from 48mm-56mm inducers. The most common is the 56mm from older cummins.

[E34DIYer]

Are there other things to spec out? Inducer/exducer wheel sizes, trims, etc? Compressor housing sizes? Or do I just pick a turbine housing and I'm done?

[ForcedFirebird]

I confess to not knowing much about the Holsets. Exactly what Holset setup would I want to hit our goals - quick spool, up to 350hp to the rear wheels?

hx35 with 12cm housing. Thy make right about 350whp at 14psi on an m20 and spool fairly quickly.

Looking forward to installing mine too. Still need to pick a turbo - want something daily - drivable but with the potential to put 350hp to the rear wheels. Thinking either a Garrett GT3076R w/.82 A/R, or something from the Holset family (not sure which one).

A Holset HX35 would be a good choice, it's proven to support 400+hp, it's durable and won't break the bank .
As for the EFR series, haven't seen an real world data comparing it to other turbo's. They are also physically longer by 3" to 4".

Not an EFR but I've seen very good results with theirs Air Werkz S256SX and I'm putting one on mine and could report back. AGP Turbo makes them with smaller T3 exhaust housings as well so you're not stuck with a 1.22 a/r divided T4.

Has anyone tried slapping a BorgWarner EFR turbo on one of these things?

Nice pics, I would recommend running OEM gaskets as the ones supplied are not the greatest and have a tendency to blow out. Figures they traveled a 4 thousand miles to get here unharmed, and FedEx fucked them up within 1500 miles.

At least the sticker survived, some have reported the sticker getting torn up.

They are deff well constructed, looking forward to seeing it installed on your car..!!!

Those gaskets look cheap I'd buy some better ones or put some copper spray on the one that the turbo sits on and some oem type gasket.

Received my manifold today. I am very happy with the quality. It is definitely thicker gauge than the cx racing manifolds and it has much thicker flanges. I was hoping to have it installed for 2015 Drive4Corners but cannot get it finished in time for next friday. Anyway, here are some photos. My only gripe is the gaskets were damaged in the shipping process. The sticker was a nice touch. Take a look at the photos!

Going to have to talk to you on these once I'm ready to get my new setup going! 8)

[Good & Tight]

We need to have some lunch soon.

John, maybe this week, I'll shoot you a text tomorrow.

dang missed the group buy by a bunch lol, can I still order a manifold?

Yes you can still order, sent you a PM.

Good question. We may focus on getting the interior up to par next, since right now it's bare metal and two seats. We're also working on sourcing our turbo. We're probably going to go with a GT3076R with .82A/R turbine housing, as this seems to be a good balance between spool-up and maximum available power. Feel free to PM me on Tial pricing.
