the dumping oil through the I/C i wouldn't be to worried about. that's probably going to be fixed by a rebuild. i would call majestic turbo in Dallas? tx and see if it can be fixed. they are supposed to be very good. Here is a really good question though.. how in the world do you plan on spooling an HX-50?!?!?!?!?!?!?! hahahahahaha. with stage 2's and no tunes an HX-50 won't spool til around 2600 rpms on one of our trucks i don't think and i'm sure that stage 2's and no tunes provides more fuel than stock sticks with tunes. not saying dont get it but get some stage 2's at least so you can spool that pig. haha

Our engines will handle the 50... I've been driving around with one for almost a year now with no tunes except an ICP mod and II's of course. There is a point of lag before it spools... Hard to explain but you really have to have around 7+ pounds to really feel the charger.

The only downfar to running this type of charger is the $$$... but it sounds wicked when it's spooled!

I'd get it... See if you can rebuild it. Throw in some Stage II's, reburn your chip, and slap that sucker on there!!!

Or mail it to me... haha
