What made you decide on a VF35? Only reason I ask is I have had both TD05-16G, TD05-18G and VF35, and the VF35 was the most dissapointing... If I was in your position I would buy a Billet TD05-16/18G depending on power target. much better "whack in your back" all in my opinion of course

The vf34 will outspool and out peak a 35, the downside is the cost of the unit

[QUOTE=Tidgy;11508010]No it doesnt, vf34 will outspool a 35 on the same setup because of the roller bearing.

VF 34 costs around the £3/500 mark.

Porting is easy, just spent a couple of hours doing a spare TD04 I have in the garage today, just type it into UTube and you'll see.
I think you can rebuild any turbo the link above for CR turbo's, but why rebuild one if it's ok, you just need to wait for a VF 34 to pop up at the right money, I used to have one on my Type R and sold it for around £400.

Depends what you want from the car and what your using it for, i like quick spool and good midrange between 40mph to 100mph I'm not interested in top end because I don't use it often, my fun time is mostly spent in 3rd gear so I want a turbo that stays on song there, the rest of the time I just need it to be quick off the lights and at over taking on country roads.

Lol, I'm no turbo guru, you'll have to do some research and see who does it professionally, I just ported mine as I was going to send it to Braveheart Developments for them to Hybridise it but it seems like he's having some problems with turn around times at the moment so thought i'd give it a shot myself.
