Holset Turbos-Questions??
I have a pair of Holset turbos. Here is the compressor map:

How much is a pair of these worth in good shape? They are not water cooled, but are in good shape other than one broken bolt.
Also how much HP would these support? I was told 700 HP would be "no problem". Thanks for the help.
I am seriously considering going with a big single turbo on my project instead of twins, so I'm trying to see how much I can get for what i have.

As a pair they would support 800 hp at 7psi or around 900hp at 15 psi. Depending on how much boost you are running. As far as how much a pair would run, that's up in the air. I would take a wild guess and say that you could get them for under a grand for a pair, used. New probably closer to 2k.
Is this on the vette? Where are you planning on putting twins? They should be a good setup for a SBC as long as you can fit them.

I was planning to put them low on either side of the engine, but just planning it has become a nightmare trying to route two of everything through the tight confines of the engine compartment. Not to mention oil return to the pan etc. I have a pair used and am trying to figure out what to ask for them if I do sell them. I have a friend selling a PT-88 and am considering going with a single turbo. That or just going the 'packaged' route with a Procharger.
