Question Helix Website?

Does anyone know if Helix has a website?

I know where to purchase online but where is the actual company site?

Thanks in advance.

td06H-18g is not too small, IMO (and for MY street needs)....

the tdo5 reaches a choke though, agreed, with the 18G....

not sure what you are meaning about the i/c....

Well the intercooler that he is running is for a high hp car, and as for the turbo for your needs but everyone and the boards say 20g and up. I mean why wouldnt u want to get the full potential out of the car .thats just me

i dont get your first sentence here...

the boards can say what they like, but i believe the 18G to be the ultimate sti street turbo.

define "full potential".... i look at it in the terms of area under the curve, with an emphasis on the low-midrange power (and less on the upper revvs... )

to each his/her own, but that s the beauty of it. we have enough choices out there to satisfy us all........


as for the dr725, well, it is a biggie, no doubt, but the only sacrifice it offers is initial throttle response (due to the length of plumbing that is)... a decent tuner can then take advantage of the cooler temps by running more agressive timing (cam timing too), and get back alot, if not all, of the oem throttle repsonse....

man, did i take this off topic......

sorry JDis.....
