That's wierd that they shouldnt mix being they spin way higher RPM's than the motor. I have no clue why when you type in YouTube hx powered stuff you get a hx40 powered talon an Hx 35. An many BMW on there an other cars all running hx35 hx40 an hx50 turbos. The drive pressure your talking making them not match is not having properly sized turbos to you application. They spin 12,000+RPM's if the sizing is right no lag an no over spool they will work fine. T70 turbos like what been used in this thread have been found on Toyota supras an so on. An Hx-35 can support up to 400hp an 35 psi safely can hit 40 if pushed but that absolute max. Holset is stronger than parts with diesel app. Than your run of the mill Garrett's an eBay turbos Garret's are good don't get me wrong but there applications range is far broader than holset there IMHO Holset is a better turbo. Lol if you put a 088 on a corvette I will agree with you to small not a match. Put that 088 in a 88 ranger at the desert hitting 5-6 psi at 60 mph through the whoops will work fine. The 088 is alot like what my friend has mounted under the rear bumper of his 20 grand Saturn lol don't ask how he put 20 grand in it either he's not that smart.
