gearing up for single conversion. Holset style.

Got the most important part in the mail the other day:





Holset H1E with 22cm2 hotside. Yes its blown to ****, but they're cheap to service and it cost me next to nothing. Can't wait to put this bad boy on.

rebuild kits are around $60 and i'll need a new compressor wheel which costs $70, or i could just buy a brand new CHRA for $350.

Was "buy it now" on ebay at the time some guy was unloading about 12 H1Es. I just picked one of the right size.
