Holset powered Evo IX
so after reading through the holset powered evo 7 thread i was very interested in the holset turbos so i did a bunch of research and with the help of revmoto and colonelfox i decided i would try it out... so rev helped me find the holset hx35w on ebay and the seller was local to me so i picked it up then bought a t3 manifold on here for 250 and got to work... all together with new oil feed and return lines and the slim fan a misc parts im into it for about 1000 bucks and it should make over 500 on e85 with a spool about that of a red
then positioned it in the car and saw what i had to fab up which was the o2 housing... very tight squeeze betweent he turbo outlet and the ac compressor
so i started to tackle the hard part first which was going to be the o2 housing... so i got some assorted bends and went to work cutting and welding heres the steps till finished housing
not finished
tight fit sor sure!
bolted up to the downpipe that i had to cut and shorten
as you can see i had to get a slim fan so i made a new bracket to hold the fan and the speed controller box...
this turbo is only oil cooled/lubricated so i had to resirc the water lines
i wasnt able to get a pic of the lower pil retun line now but i went to murreys and they hooked me up with all the AN fittings i need to make a 10an retun line to fit to the factory drain plug... the upper oil supply line was an easy get at murrey also
i have plenty more photos that i will be uppdating soon just have to upload them... the build is complete and the car is running great even though it is untned right now, i also had to make a new licp which i will post pics of later
here is an almost finished pic to end for now

There's a PDF on it at post #8.
You should heat wrap that downpipe and put heat shielding on the a/c comp like the guy in the other holset turbo thread floating around. That's too close for comfort. That's a hot pipe I can't imagine it being any good for the A/c.

So cool seeing Evo guys starting to become like dsmers and actually making **** for themselves rather than just buying a bunch of parts from a name brand place. GOOD FOR YOU!
