Default Turbo help!

Evening all,
Im looking for some turbo advice I have a vf34 on my car at the moment but it is on its way out! I love the turbo and how it performs but my question is do I buy another one or do I go for the sc38? I have done a bit of research on the sc38 and the results look good but i dont wont to loose the characteristics of the car as its taken me a while to become happy with it! so really what I want to know is, is this a worth while upgrade and will I enjoy it as much as the vf34? I know the sc38 can make more power but I want a good daily drive with good response and I dont want to sacrifice that for ultimate power! (well not yet anyway )
Any advise and help would be much appreciated!!

if youve got the wonga go for the newer turbos like an sc38 not sure if they are billet compressors now but thats what you want. they spool very good and give good power assuming your engine can take the 380hp, if not why bother because you wont be able to run the turbo at its full potential

A vf35 is a good alternative and easier to get hold of than a vf34, I should know it took me ages to get mine, i thought I saw a vf35 for sale tonight in the parts section if you are interested.

Scooby Clinic now do a SC36 Billet (their smallest tubby).

Made 371!! on a 2.0 on V-Power only.

And spools as good as, if not better, than a VF34/35! Prob spools similar to a VF28/29!!!
