I was thinking about the HX35 with the "shitty BEP housing" but where can I get an HX40 with a billet compressor wheel?

I hope you're going for an hx40 with the bep housing. the hx35/40 with the bep housing is not going to do what the scm6176 will do. I doubt the suggester even knows what the hx35 turbine wheel is capable of with certain a/r. However, I don't know many who chose the p-trim wheel (scm 6176) and look for a bolton situation. In such case where bolton friendly is most important, along with spool speed, the hx35/40 with the bolton housing will compare well for flow and outspool the scm6152.

If you're looking at the best flowing scm61, I suggest the straight hx40. It spools to 20+ psi before 4100rpms and flows as much as the scm6176. There isn't an scm6176 user that can claim that spool speed and the same results at the wheels.
