Well I’m thinking about doin a turbo swap. I would like to have around 400 450 hp. I will be purchasing a qaud v2 before too long. I’m thinking I will do injectors too. What size would you do with the HE351 and v2? And now for the turbo... do I want the variable geometry or the cw model? I would also like an exhaust brake which I believe is built into these turbos? Has anyone else done this swap? What was your experience? Anyone please chip in with questions comments or concerns. 

Mods should be in signature. Fass 150 is alsonin the books before long! 

 

And just to clarify the truck is running well now. No issues besides the fact it snowed 6 inches yesterday and I hit the ditch! Took out the neighbors mailbox with deer guard! :mad: Thanks guys!!

  • The oil feed comes from the filter housing. The drain goes into the pan at the bottom of the block.    Maybe the white box is aftermarket? Go genuine Holset. 

  • Are you looking for a tow tune at 400-450 or a street tune at 400-450 and 350-375 for towing?   The reason I ask is the HE351CW is about a 350-375 rwhp turbo for towing at altitude and reaso

There's all his pricing info and where he got it. I cannot speak for the spooling of his turbo however. 

The link you posted will be fairly laggy with stock injectors. Also, to option that turbo to be a drop-in model (2nd Gen cover, 12 cm gated housing), the price rises to 1,360, and you would still need a HX40 downpipe. 

Defiantly mor cost than the cw already.

I think I’m going to buy the turbo that’s on cf so we will be gettin started soon!! Tfaoro mentioned a spring wastegate? Is this a good option? Apparently it will eliminate the need for a wastegate bracket...

How would 7x0.009s spoil with this setup? I don’t want to have too much power after I turn off the qaudzilla so I’m thinking I want to withdraw a little. Will these still net be around 450 hp?

The answer has already been given.  why do you want to turn off the quadzilla? 

 

7 x .009's will work fine with the turbo but 7 x .010's are a nearly perfect match for a he351cw. without any tuning they will push the turbo to a very sweet spot in the map with room for more fuel, AKA tuning.    Going with 7 x .009's vs 7 x .010 means you are going to have to push the tuning harder for the same resulting power.  

 

7 x .010's will give you more useable torque across the entire rpm band with 0 down fall.

The main reason for turning off the qaud would be in winter because the torque would make it spin like crazy everywhere. But I guess with v2 I can turn everything down right?

you use your right foot to control how much power you want.   if you want %20 throttle you use %20 throttle, if you want %50 throttle you use %50 throttle.   

 

If the tune you build is too aggressive then you build a new tune with a less violent ramp up in fueling.   you dont want to use levels once you get your tune dialed in.  I have not switched power levels in months.

 

the Quadzilla will make the truck easier to drive by controlling the fueling, stock will be harder to control.  with 7 x .010's you will prob start your tune out at %90 of oem power, this means leaving the light the truck will be less aggressive with the quadzilla on vs quadzilla off.

 

I have 7 x .012's a he351ve that will build 15+ psi at 1500 rpm and bald tires and I am not dying.

Hehe I like the sounds of this! Haha I think your right about everything. Should have listened to you in the first place cuase I’m sure you know more than I do! 

I have been messaging @TFaoro and he gave a link for a spring powered wastegate. What do you think about that?

You asked about a spring wastegate. They are popular on the HE351's because they open the WG based on drive pressure and not on boost pressure. This will keep the DP lower and flow a little more exhaust sooner.

 

 

Which wheels are commonly used in the 35/40 hybrid?

AT least mine measures out at 60/60/12 for the Hybrid HX35/40W I've got.

That's only half the story. What are the full wheel dimensions?

Well... I'm not going to tear mine down for measurements. Sorry, that's the best I can provide at this time. 

 

They should be available from the vendor. I'm pretty sure it's the HE351 compressor wheel and the HE351VE turbine wheel. 

Most hybrids are super hx40 compressors and a regular hx35 turbine.

I’m not sure what that flexible hose is on the side? imageproxy.php?img=&key=4d11e5b7ded08803

Looks like an oil drain

Sorry for not clarifying but I’m asking about the hose on the left. The right one I believe is the oil drain that goes to the oil filter.
