The HE221W is made in China so can be bought cheap directly from there, check out aliexpress.com or alibaba.com, make sure you get a genuine Holset though

If going Garrett is your only option I would go for the GT2056

GT2056V is a VNT turbo, so that complicates it alot as you need to control the vanes

That's what I thought. What cars had a non VNT GT2056?
Is the GT2056 a T3 flange by any chance?
Would it be a worthwhile upgrade over my standard T3?

no its t25, g
t2056
u may be able to order it with a t3 flange tho. i've seen some weird stuff before, a nissan guy i know had a turbo with a 60 trim to4e compressor bolted to a t25 .64 turbine side that had a t3 flange, it wasn't on a car, but i was like dude wtf are you going to do with that weird thing haha. tiny turbine with huge compressor

The bigger power cars seem to run a GT35, or HX40...go down a notch from there, and stick with the T3 flange.
In the meantime, $15 on a ball and spring boost controller helps a lot with low RPM spool.

i think gt2259 looks very good as well, they don't have it mapped much above 2 bars but it obviously will work up there since its only at 154k at 3 bars, i would just be concerned that the turbine side is too big, but i think since .48 a/r ancient t3 works a little bit, that any gt22 turbine will work much better, but with out actually trying, who knows

Well, you are wrong

Holset, or Cummins Turbo Technologies as is the correct name these days, has a lot of their production going on in China, especially the smaller displacement engines ISF. Yes, there are Chinese copies of Holset turbos, but the genuine ones are easy to get as well.
Please post a link to your statement about all genuine Holsets are USA made.

I can second the Holset production in China issue. My neighbour is a Chief engineer for Holset and Cummins and he personally went to China to buy a chinese production plant.
There are non genuine Chinese Holset copies i grant you but then there are non genuine Chinese copies of most things.

wow, seems as if you are right.. thats gotta be a new thing? china production..
because a year or so, i was doing some reading, and right on holsets website, it said that all holsets were produced in the usa..
well, the website is different now, and it DOES mention lots of china..
the last good american company finally went with chinese production.. great!
