Re: Opinions on the Holset HX40 Turbo

Are their T3 versions on the Holsets? My wife's car has an SC6152 on it, not the SCM version. Just looking at other options, without more lag. I haven't seen the Holsets for cheap anywhere though.

Just snag a used holset. Have it rebuild for insurance, if you want. And get a t3 BEP turbine housing. You can get rebuildable cores from here for next to nothing. Try to avoid cores with bad wheels. The wheels are fairly expensive. This guy is someone I trust and use and can rebuild them for a very good price. He has great reviews has been doing it for years and has a great reputation. Or you can take to a shop you know. Or you can do it yourself. Or you can get a core that doesn't need a rebuild. They're out there on ebay and GREAT deals can be found on forum classifieds like Dieseltruckresource.com.

EDIT: If you want new you can contact HT Turbo. They had the 68lb/min hx40 for sale for $825. You can sell the turbine housing and make the money to buy the t3 bep housing.
