H2E vs HX50??
I know they are similair turbo's but are they the same? Same exhaust outlet flange (downpipe)? Same exhaust inlet? Compressor and Turbine wheels?
Any info you guys can give me would be great. Had a bead on an H2E with 17cm exhaust housing and they went to pull it off the shelf and it wasn't there. Now they have offered a HX50 for the same price.

Kris that is my plan and what I had lined up. but now the place that I was gonna buy the turbo from found out they don't have it any more and have offered me a HX-50 which from everything I have seen says the H2E is the old version of the HX-50 but I can't find any specs to support that. Looks like there are atleast two versions of the 50. but I would atleast like to know if the dowpipe piped connection is the same as thats the only part I am not sure I want to fab up.

HX 50-
the H2E Looks very similar, and i found this on the net-
"It is basically the same turbo as the hx50. I believe the hx50 took over for the h2 series. Do you happen to have pictures of the hx50 particularly turbine section."
Sounds like the HX50 is newer, and if anything, should be the same turbo but "improved". They spool slow, make sure you have a tight exhaust housing. Oh, and the downpipe should be the same thing!
