hx 35/ 40 hybrid project

[Ramdriver15]

i ambuying an HX40 soon, and im wondering what needs to be done to make it a hybrid or is that not how its done. I have had, truthfully, no experiencs yet with a turbo build so im new! Curious if you can give me a list of needed supplies.
thanks,
John

Do neither. Save the $$$'s and go with a s300 or phat shaft 62. You will outgrow the hybred quickly. Unless you get the hx40 for say 150-200 bucks then it's worth the effort. You can get a 300 for about 6 or 7 bills now being they are out there to be had for good deals.

i found the hx 40 for 130 bucks....

[Ramdriver15]

what type of engine does the s300 come in frm the factory? what type of engin like the hx 40 is on the 8.3 l cummins, and s400 schwitzer is on mack trucks....

Like ToolMan said, don't bother, go with the Phat Sahft or a HTB2.

I did one nad it gave me a little better breathing, but still pegged the`1600* mark.

my budget wont allow for that.... so im going cheap.... plus my uncle had an 03 with a hybrid, he was fine with his, so im gonna try it... mabe upgrade once i settle in down there at college...

i saw that earlier, and i decided to withdraw my interest in the hx 40 and look into this. When i recieve my tax returns i plan on either injectors and this or injectors and Dvs, but id problygo with the turbo housing first.
any one know what all is involved with the swap, because the way it seems its pretty easy.

[TORQUE THIS]

Housing swap is easy. The big snap ring can be a real B'TCH sometimes.

thats what ive heard from my uncle's buddy. he built my unlces turbo for him... well im looking forward to those splendid tax returns.:woohoo:

[PToombs]

I had to turn the housing on the HX35 I got from Turbo Tim. I had it on the truck, and had to take it back off to do the ring. :badidea: Make sure it all lines up before you tighten it down! :duh:

[Ramdriver15]

what do you mean by :dunno: the ring" ill be doing this mod soon so im lookng for all the detai i can get...

any pictures from the mod?

[DBogo]

to answer the question earlier what do S300's come off of im not too sure but i know they do come on john deere motors not sure what else though i am interested to find out

[JLeonard]

what do you mean by the ring
He probably means the internal seal...which looks like a mini piston ring.
