H1C/H1E Hybrid Build

Postby RSWORDS » Wed Aug 13, 2008 2:58 pm

Well after some disscussion on here and some other site I decided to go ahead and hybrid my H1C and H1E turbos together. So Here is a quick write up....

Just a quick over view of what goes into making a holset hybrid turbo. Luckly Holset uses 4 8mm bolts on the rear of alot of the backing plates for the compressors allowing you to simply swap them. So grab a beer and hang on!

Here is the H1E turbo
Image

Start by removing the V-Band Clamp that holds the compressor housing on...
Image

Then pull it off revealing the compressor wheel
Image

Next I removed teh 4 bolts holding on the exhaust housing...
Image

The housing does not bolt to teh center section, there are two clamps that hold it. this allows you to clock the center section so the oil flow is correct for you application.
Image

If you are not working with a new turbo you might have to persuade the exhaust housing off... Thsi might be as easy as a few light taps with a deadblow hammer to a last resort of breaking out a torch, if you do this you run a REAL high risk of baking the seals and having to rebuild the turbo.
Image

Now we can take off the compressor wheel... these a left hand thread... that mean you turn the not clockwise to remove it. on the H1E the compressor and exhaust nuts are 12 point and on my stock 89 H1C the nut on the exhaust is 12 and the compressor is 6. This will be very important when you reassemble it you need to torque teh nut to 150 in. lb. if it's a 6-point nut, 135 in. lb. if it's a 12-point nut. After removing the wheel you can pull teh exhaust wheel and shaft out as one piece
Image

After the shaft is out of the way we can start taking off the backing plate. Here are the 4 bolts I was just talking about that makes this swap pretty easy.

After removing them the backing plate comes right off and you are left with this...
Image

Do the same steps to the H1C then reverse it to put the compressor wheel, backing plate, and compressor housing off the H1E onto the H1C.

And this is what you get... Looks like I'm gonna need a custom cross over pipe!

Here is the intake I made.

3/4" plate with 2.5" tube coming out. Had a bead rolled in it so that it would hold the boot a little better.

Welded on the inside so that it looks REAL clean

On a 0-60 run before the hybrid I could peg the Pyro at 1500*, I ran a boy in a Civic up to 80 mph and it took the neddle 3 seconds to come off the peg. I dont even WANT to know how hot it was with the Hybrid I can keep my foot in it as long as I want and all I can get it to is 1300* Also cleaned up all the full throttle smoke! Needs more Cow Bell... eeerrrr Fuel Screw...

Very nice write up and pics! Thanks!

Any chance that you(or anyone) would care to explain a few of the differences between the H1E or the H1C? Or maybe just some "general" turbo tech? What do the various sizes of exh and comp housings do? I think I have a good idea, but I'm not certain.
