Just wanting to know is a HE351Ve too big for a OM617?? What kind of boost can i get out of them. I am not trying to get 500 hp here but, just a good turbo upgrade instead.

Generally, all Holset turbos can "only" do 30-35psi, its the airflow capability that differs. If you need more pressure than that, you need compounds and/or porting.

Yes, its a very large turbo both in airflow and weight. Its the same as an HX40 (60x86mm compressor) and it weighs 50lbs.

Don't even bother asking about the HE551Ve or HE561Ve turbos, you'd need to split it across two engines to handle that much flow.

Thats basically an HX50 and its used on 10.0L engines. Nothing under 5.0L would be able to flow enough air to use it, even an extremo-modded OM606.
