Wich turbo to choose for PINTO conversion

Hello, from Estonia!

Have read alot about pinto conversions and so, but don't know much about this, wich turbo to use?
I got 1 Holset HX35 at home, is it too big for 2.0 IS engine? (I would like to put turbo on it in cheap way, no MS, just extra fuel injectors with pressure switch and so). 

Would be good if somone can tell me about HX35, what are the good and bad things, to put it on pinto.

And also u can tell wich turbo's ur using on pinto's

Thanks!

Got some more info on the hx35?

There are many models available of the hx35

Hmm, all I got, that the model is HX35
assy 3598716
serj d0509161379
customer 504047816

Turbo hot side is 16" and it has T3 flange with divided housing!

Got some pic's too

It will work no question about that, just not sure about what rpm you get full boost

And you already got it, and its capable of many Hp

It's just, im not building a drag race car, so I dont want too much Hp, just like 200-250Hp. And yea, I dont even know, when I put it on this engine, what rpm that HX35 starts to spool(work), when it starts like 3500-4000 rpm, than it kinda sucks, cause before that 3500-4000 that car won't move at all -.-
I would go for 0,6-0,8 bar, not more, cause I have stock engine(new stuff inside engine, but STD)

Don't know what to do. To build it up, and just try, or easier to find another turbo

Ok!
There are many turbo to choose from.

I would look for a Mitsubishi turbocharger like a Td04.

Most common modells of td04

T15 - 280Hp
T16 - 310Hp
T19 - 360Hp

Numbers are just a guideline to what they are capable of producing.


Very common on many factory turbo cars.

Hello, the Compressor Side seems to be good, but the exhaust side could be a bit too big.

I use this turbo for my pinto:

It is a GT2560R (no original garret) but it works very great! build for race use, build and balanced in germany.
have a very good quality. only the housings come from china.

For me the GT2560R is very very good. Great throttle response and no turbo lag !
Starts spooling at 2000rpm and max boost from 3000rpm in 3th gear.

I think that your turbo will work good but could spool a little bit slower.

TD04 is also a good choise as drzero said before.
