holset turbos

Post by Rich »

A lot of people have used them with decent results. It can be hard to find the compressor maps for them and often theyve been described as an off switch. And after riding in a 2.3t mustang with one Id definitely describe the HX35 and similar models (is it Hy35 thats variable?? I forget.. ). But considering they typically come from diesel engines thats not a surprise.
They are oem though and on a diesels have seen them go 100K or more even with some abuse.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps
