Re: hx55v

That sounds interesting if it's a vvt. It's basically an h2e flow wise so that could be neat. Most likely in whatever the original application was, it used electronic controls. But, should be able to rig up something similar to a diaphragm wastegate control.

I do not believe it is vvt. I think they use HE instead of HX.

EDIT:

Guess I was wrong:

I haven't heard of anyone producing a VGT with a cfm rating as high as even the smallest twin setups. The Holset HX55V is close.

It is capable of flowing nearly 1400 cfm.

Re: hx55v

I found that same info when I googled HX55V. What I havent found yet is if it needs a seperate computer to control it or if it is fully self contained. On the holset site they list the HX as useing the air compressor off the brakes of the big rigs and the HY useing a complicated computer that analizes nox and every thing else. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif
