Hey thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. Conski, the little one in that picture is also an H1C. Its from an airport tractor or something like that. Its got the same hotside and center as the big H1C, but tiny comp side.
Chase, the car did come with a k24 stock. There are two types of these 5-cylinders however... a 10v and a 20v. 10v came with a k26 and 20v with a k24. The K26 in the 10v application isn't really any bigger than the k24 is though. There are so many different sizes of K26 its ridiculous. Regardless, 20v is what you want. 20v parts are like gold.
Thanks Fred, thats exactly why I like it too.
As an update, here are some vids and also the next step in the project just came today.
Vids are only at 21psi and not tuned very well. Its got a LOT more power to make, but I have to build the bottom end first.

and this one was when it was still on like 15psi and misfiring badly because of plug wires. Still kinda cool tho

More to come when its got a built bottom end or tuned better on the dyno or something.
Here are the pics of what came today (as posted on another forum)
This is a pretty fun sorta update...
So this is what the HX52 looked like when I first unpackaged it.
under the comp cover is pretty oily. Wheel measures something like 67mm inducer and 98mm exducer.
this is a BIG 16cm housing. Much bigger in exterior size than the 16 that I had on my H1C. You can also see the oil drain.
Here is the "almost T4" flange and oil feed.
Big ole v-band and some oil on the turbine blades. I think I'm going to call it safe and just rebuild this one. However, there is NO shaft play at all and the housings aren't cracked. This is what you want to look for when buying a Holset.
Now...here is the pic in my sig. The H1C looks pretty decent (read: big) in there right?
now how does it look?
When I opened the box up I was almost unimpressed with the size of this thing. After looking at this picture however, I guess it looks pretty huge lol.
oh and last but not least, THANK YOU GOLDFARB!!!!

do the 10vs have the intake manifold right about the turbo?
I was honestly thinking about pulling the turbo and oilcooler set up as I am trying to piece together a turbo kit, the turbine has little to no play what so ever and looks like with some love it would be prime.
and that new turbo looks like some funVolkswagen Jetta, MKiii (Daily)

Thanks so much for the kind words again. The k26 is essentially the same, just spools a little slower. Should make a little bit more power I guess. I don't mind the threadjack. This doesn't get enough action anyway
Would definitely be a decent turbo for a 2.0

I'm thinking of running this myself, want to see it before I purchase.
Thanks!
PS your car is ridiculous. I love it.

Shaun, here's the only pic I have of them like that. It was before I cleaned up the barrels obviously. I think they would look amazing and you can mount the centers either inside or outside the lip.
Eskimo, what enkeis?
I did actually mount the style 5's on the car and they didn't quite do it for me. (had to chop two pics together because I only had one complete). They are for sale btw
I ended up picking up some more awesome wheels though. Should make for a nice project and maybe nice looking on this car.
If anyone knows where I can find a new center for one of these, that would be great.
