holset he221 - MFSuper90 - 12-10-2012

So I am thinking about turbos for my car, because my little stock charger is starting to get some excessive play in it.

I ran across a good deal on a he221 and was wondering what yall think about running one. I believe they have a T25 flange, which would probably be a pain, but is doable.

These chargers are similiar to a hx27 i believe. Is it too small?

It's exactly the same as the hx27, however it has a billet aluminum compressor wheel. It's an excellent turbo if you're keeping the stock pump

yeah, I am not planning on doing a myna pump or anything, just a turned up stock pump.

How hard do you think it will be to adapt it to my manifold?

This should have the info you need to know for the he221. From the 2.5 to the T3 doesn’t seem that hard.

I did some research and found that earlier this morning, and I am with you, sound pretty easy! Cool

The adaptor is cake. The more difficult part is the oil feed and drain and connecting it to the intake manifold. But even those aren't that hard.

After looking into it I agree. I have a W115 intake for my car also, so a couple silicone boots and maybe a little pipe,it should be golden.

Hopefully I score this turbo, that would be sweet Cool

Son of a B****
The bidding ended sooner than I thought and someone got for $5 more than my bid. I am not very happy Angry


RE: holset he221 - led-panzer - 12-17-2012

Ah shit, I was hoping you were the high bidder. Gotta put the max bid higher next time.

Really sucks man that was a great deal for someone


RE: holset he221 - EDH_Performance - 12-17-2012

I am going to mount one of these with 6cm exhaust housing and billet compwheel on a isuzu 3.1TD 4 cyl engine and 11mm ve-pumpBig Grin
The billet compwheel is made to run at 2.8bars on the engine it was original mounted on!


RE: holset he221 - MFSuper90 - 12-18-2012

Yeah I know it. I thought it ended during my lunch break, but ended sooner than I thought, oh well shit happens.

And that sounds cool!


RE: holset he221 - led-panzer - 12-22-2012

There's another one on ebay right now, brand new, buy it now is 400.

Just put a offer on it (I'm a tight ass), got back on a couple hours later and someone bought it. Sometimes I should just spend a little money... Tongue

I just mounted one of these HE221W with billet wheel and 7cm housing on my BMW 318TDS (1665ccm IDI diesel engine), And have full boost at 3100rpm! Works really great, and this is a really good quality turboBig Grin

I wish I would have grabbed one of them, but I ended up getting a good deal on a hx30 with the 6cm housing, so we will see how it works on a 617 Big Grin
