ok, apperently the 35R is "exactly" the same as the 35/40 (email received). If one of the wheels weren't replced with one from the 40R I have no idea why the name change, but oh well. The only thing the same is the manifold kit (old one).



So back to the original dilemna: If I can get the manifold and DP for "Cheap" then I can do this othwise I might as well just wait for the 40R at the same price. ...unles the new redisigned kit (from 40R) and the 35R is a better choice for me.

to maximize spool up you want a smaller exhaust housing. However, with a .63 a/r, your going to proly spool at idle! You want something in the area of .81~.84 for a stock exhaust port car....so a .63 is WAY too small.

Zero R

The manifold on the 35R kit is the same style manifold on the 40R kit they both sit in the same place, for the most part. I have updated the base flanges to 3/4 thickness as well. And made some other tiny improvements since the first few kits went out.



And so everyone can see this the 35R is the same exact turbo as the 35/40 I've been selling them for over two years and they were always called 35R the other designation is more of a street term.

lol, cool wouldn't that make the car feel more like a V8? I have a street port, supposed to be mild. I told him I wanted it to be smooth like the RX8 but I haven't inspected it yet nor driven it cause I haven't picked it up.

in a sense yes...because you'd never get above 5000 rpms.

No, it is not, it uses the same wheel from the GT40 not the 40R the term 35/40 is more of a street term

Can the new kit for your 40R be used on the 35R? I like how the 40R kit sits lower and more rearward then the 35/40.

The newer 35R kit sits in the same lower and back location go look at the thread DrPJM1 started "single turbo OMG"

How much more of a spool delay (aka: lag) is the 40R then the 35R?

minimal

What is the sweet sopt on both of these? ...I don't want to boost more then 1bar.

GT35R really starts to make power at 17psi the 40R isn't much different but will be cooler at those levels.

The bigger the turbo, the less boost for the same HP but for a trade of spool delay. <- is that correct?
