this thingy where my finger is point to is kinda gritty feeling when it spins.
That is just the heat shield it doesn't spin when the housing is on it's just full of carbon buildup that's why it is gritty.
And bosch EV14 injectors are not cheap they are the injector that all of big company's use like Injector Dynamics ETC. they just flow match or modify them to flow more.
now the real question is... Does it come in blank? Also found out the vclamp from the downpipe is 2.5in so that is good for me since my exhuast is 2.5in to the y split to dual 2.25.
I need o port this part that sticks out into the pipe
Doesn't look like it sticks out too much. I wouldn't worry about it.
Cant wait to see the end result.
Edit: i just looked at the pic again and saw you were talking about the flange on the BOV mine was cut to go on top of the pipe and the hole was ported around that. If you can try to get in there with a die grinder and get it close to the pipe.

Yup i want to grind that down becuase it will jack up the air flow and make a really bad blow off valve. I will probably taper it so that when the air does rish out it goes into a scoop.

turbo rebuild kit just came in. I will work on it Friday or Saturday. Just need to mark up the turbo and make sure that everything is lined up before and after.
That looks ok to me, where the bearings ride looks good the center of the shaft does nothing, are the new journal bearings loose on the shaft ? they just need a little bit of clearance clean it up really good pay attention to the piston ring seal groove that has to be cleaned out so it will not stick on the shaft, and don't even think about buying a Ebay turbo total junk, I only see one journal bearing in the kit ? and no shaft piston ring seals ?
Okay that's. My kit was missing 4 c clips and the piston seals. Going to return it and get another one from a different seller. But that u for the reassurance. I'll be porting some of turbo items tomorrow.
I wouldn't call all ebay turbos total junk. There are quite a few with a very well known reputation for being very nice. Sure, maybe they don't have the rice boy, "ZOMG, Precision Turbo FTW" or "Turbonetics rule yo!" but there are more than a few going a heck of a lot faster than anyone on this forum with ebay turbos.
A few well known 'ebay brands'
Kinugawa
MasterPower
CXRacing
On3
There are a LOT of Coyote Mustangs running the On3 twin kit running 150+ 1/4s. If an ebay turbo is good enough for a $40K car to run 150mph in the quarter, it's good enough for my 10 year old $2500 car.
I also started some porting on the turbine side trying to gasket match everything. Also tried to port the down pipe and barely got it down. I am going to need a better bit.
I found this for the hx35. It would convert the turbine housing to an open scroll, A/R .70, 3in v-band, and non-waste gated. Currently it is a 12cm (roughly equal to .89 A/R) waste gated housing.
I emailed turbo lab of America and they can retrofit me a t3 housing with an A/R .63 instead of the .70 above for about 150 bucks.
I think I am going to do that instead since it will help the turbo spool up much quicker and give a nice kick in tq compared to what the original owner was dynoed. Also I did some research and the hx35 with the A/R .63-.70 turbine housing would be similar to a gtx35 garrett turbo. The only different being the Garrett is a ball bearing turbo so it will spool 500-600 rpm faster.

I think you'll be much happier. A 12cm housing is HUGE and you'd probably hate the lag. Works great on a 6 liter truck, not so well on a 3L car.
Yeah i hope to change the spool characteristic of this turbo since the orginal osner chart looks way different compared to flex accord and a few other boosted accord and tl.
Hye screaminz are you on the gen7 accord fb group?

3.0 motor and with a .63 housing on the holset it is still good for 500hp instead of 600hp.
Accord flex is also running a .63 A/R on his precision 6262.
Also let me remind you that the holset comes with a 12cm^2 housing which is around a .89 trim. Just look how dyno graph is from the original owner and compared it to accordflex graph. So hopefully the smaller a/r housing will get the power down faster instead of hitting max tq close to 6250 rpm
TOTALLY AGREE what is the exhaust wheel outer diameter ?
60mm x 70mm 6 blades on a 3.0 motor running 6-8 psi and spinning it to 7k.
Do you think a .70 open scroll would be better. The manifold is open scroll. Remember this turbo was coming from a 6.0L high compression diesel motor running it at 20+psi.

I am open to suggestion if you guys think otherwise, I am just trying to get rid of the internal wastegate without welding it shut, and fixing the issue that the hx35 is a twin scroll and my manifold is an open scroll.
^ yeah I saw that. The one I was looking at was an adapted housing from a garrett .63 for 150 shipped. I need it to be 3in v-band. so BEP was another option.
I need to double check the turbine and compressor side since there are different variation of the Hx35.
I finished rebuilding the turbo today. It spins way smoother now. Also added oil and taped up the feed and drain line. Going to let it sit for a few days and see if the oil will leak pass the seals.
Here is also measurements of my compressor and turbine wheels

Did you figure out how your exhaust housing will work yet ? have you found anyone that has used the same housing you have on a similar or close displacement as your engine ?
Looking good the parts pile keeps building that's the hardest part (financing it)
