yeah dont get the logic to this at all, vf34 is same spool and better top end, so why replace it with an inferior turbo?
saves your money and dont bother

vf34 and 5 are based on a vf30, vf35 uses a smaller exhaust fan to increase spool but drops top end punch, vf34 using roller bearings instead of sleave bearings to improve spool without the drop in top end.
set up right they spool about the same but the 34 tends to get some additional horses.
bear in mind each car is different though.
