Owen Developments HTA68 Turbo
 
Looking for opinions on the above turbo. Wanting to fit it to a blob wagon. Replacing a vf34 I don't really want any more power (honest) but don't want to lose the great spool I have on the 34. It's this turbo or a SC36 so far.

struggling to find any great detail on it. Mostly American stuff from 2009.

All opinions good or bad welcome.

Thanks
Derek

why replace ? is it bust ?

lots of info on google ! maybe a bit laggier than the 34 but better top end grunt so maybe more power like an 18g !

Yes sadly the 34 is on the road out. Has started smoking. Love the way it performs.

or stick a vf35 on ?? can be brought quite cheaply on here !!

. Craig bellworthy CENTRAL TURBOS , can supply a rebuilt one or could rebuild your own with billet wheel and uprated bearings so be better than a new one

I didn't think the 34 could be rebuilt?

Had a 35 before and very good but I'm not too keen on firing a used turbo on with the age some are getting to. Whatever I buy will be kept and transferred onto the next Impreza.

I think parts to rebuild them were expensive that's the only reason why a lot of companies say they cannot be rebuilt. Give Craig a call and he will give you no bull**** free advice.
