Modified HX-35
Decided to try something a little different and modify my stock turbo. I'm well aware of several different places that sell "stock appearing" turbos. I'm on a tight budget , and have good friends at a local machine shop.
Truck is a 97, with injectors , some pump tuning and governor springs. Decided on going with a 67/67 stock appearing hx35. I ordered parts from turbo lab of America. Went with a 10 blade turbine instead of a 12 to help with drive pressure issues. Finished it up today , and seems to spool really well , and quite a bit more power over the stock hx35. Here's some pics of it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1f433e38ab.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5ef201b344.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...672c3d7282.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0162d550a2.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c4956c0bc2.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ef380d682d.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...38781d3c61.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...957e14ed7d.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...19426c4e9b.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...62020f7d68.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Did you have to get the assembly balanced?

Neat.

What's the exducer of the compressor wheel and inducer of the turbine? My HE351 is a 62/64 and I thought that was pushing it!

I think Zach built something similar and was actually very happy with it...

Is it necessary to enlarge the radius to follow the contour oft eh turbine and compressor wheel or is the machining process just a matter of enlarging the bore to fit the inducer on the compressor and exducer on the turbine? I have always wanted to play around with some of this....

So when you buy just the wheels, do they give you the profile in a .stp file or something so you can easily machine the housings?

That is pretty awesome sir. Hats off to you for even trying it, and even better it works great. Wish there was more people in the diesel community like this.... blah blah forces

I am sure you will get along OK, though. Usually the problematic ones show their face pretty quick. |

A modded he351 put a qcsb common rail into the high 10's and it's still running fine after being beat on for quite some time. That was fuel only also
|
So the shafts aren't made of inconel as well?
|
nope, just the turbines. friction welded together

Just thought it's funny.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c6fd420ebd.jpg
