(03-13-2014, 01:00 PM)MFSuper90 Alcaid, would you recommend a he221 over a hx30?

Depends on what application and what the goals are

HE221W has better transient response as the rotating assembly is much lighter, it flows up to 37.8lbs/min and has a very good surge margin but compressor efficiency is low.

HX30W has much better compressor efficiency but is a lot more mass to spool.

On a 1.6-2.0 liter engine, I would go HE221W

2.5 and bigger, HX30W, 40, 42, 44 or 46mm (Super) inducer versions depending on how much hp is needed.

If ultra fast spool and response is what one is after and 25-30lbs/min is enough air, HE211W 5cm is a winner!

If you were looking for about 180-200hp out of a 3.0L om617, would a he221 be better I assume because of the faster spool and you wouldn't need high boost? (om617 will bend rods anyways at high boost)

I have a hx30 on my om617, and while it spools decent, I can tell that I am not even close to fully using it to its full potential.

Thanks for all the help! If I could go back before I bought and rebuilt my hx30 I would have bought one from you.
