Unless you plan on throwing some more fuel at it, dont get too carried away with the turbo or its going to be a pig to drive around.

Their are mixed opinions on the HX40, depending on its configuration (wheel and housing size) some people claim spoolup much similar to the stock WH1C/HX35W. While others claim it being a fair bit more laggy.

SuperB/special is kind of the same boat, some claim super laggy and other say its not bad at all. but it all depends on your fueling and tuning.

Facts are, its a bigger turbo, its not going to spool up as fast as the lil stocker, guaranteed. but with some good fine tuning its not going to be alot worse.


Personally, if i could find a cheap HX40 i would throw it on and give it a shot. Chances are you can pick one up for ALOT less than an aftermarket turbo and with that money you save you can put it towards some injectors!
