    HE351 Holset???

    For those using this turbo, is THIS what y'all use? I've seen some impressive results from the HE351 and for $250 it seems too good to be true!

    (Planned for a 2.5 Neon headed drag engine)

    I don't think that's the one your looking for....the one in those auctions is a electronic variable vein turbo.

    You would want the regular HE351 which I believe came on an earlier model pickup than those turbos in the auctions you listed

    Like already stated, that's the VGT version. I haven't had a chance to see how that one will work on a 2.2......yet!

    You want the plain housing without all the VGT parts.

    I read that someone was using a boost controller to control the vanes, it was hard to control but it worked, he had more fine tuning to do.

    What vehicles did the proper turbo come on? Does MTX/ATX matter?

    There are so many VGTs for sale it makes you wonder if they are any good. Here is an HE351CW

    Re: HE351 Holset???

    OK. . . my next concern is available support. If I'm decide to run the Holset and I need it rebuilt or repaired, who do I go to?

    With a Garrett I know I can call Chris and get everything fixed right up.

    Well, yes, I guess. The HE351CW. . . I don't seem to find a lot of the readily available in good condition. Like the link above has a "BAD EXHAUST FAN".

    Makes me wonder if these are the ones that are choking up and being replaced left and right by Dodge right now.

    if you buy one with a good center section the rebuild is not that bad if the center section is junk your looking at 1300 dollars

    Re: HE351 Holset???

    Found a company "local" that deals in diesel stuff including turbos and rebuilds. They list Holset on their website, but I need to call them for any information.

    About 90 miles from my place. Coworker who pulls a turbo diesel tractor deals with them.

    If they have parts/repair service/new-used turbos available, I'll be in the money!!!

    I paid about 200 for my Holset, in good shape, but decided to rebuild it anyways, for 80$. The shaft and thrust bearing are much larger than on garrett units. More durable, easy to rebuild, and parts are available but it takes some looking.

    Re: HE351 Holset???

    Called Midwest-Diesel today. They do not have any HE351CW's on hand, but can get new ones and they do rebuild them. I asked for a call back quote on a new one. His message stated that he needed more numbers off of the turbo. I didn't speak with him to find out what numbers he needs and since I don't have the turbo, I don't know what those numbers would be.

    Anyone?
