I would go with HTA35R or the new BR FS635... both have been proven to go 9's and with quick spool. Spend you money the right way, once.

I would go HTA35r or fs635.. We also run the 6262 on my RS that made 712hp @ 40psi.. all 3 are great turbos.. We keep the HTA and 6262 in stock also if anyone needs.. Fs635 is special order.,. any questions with your particular setup PM me,.,,

The T67 a/k/a GT37 is best suited for a drag only race car IMHO. The power advantage comes at a huge loss in low end power and spool up. I like the smaller units for any car that is going to run on the street.

I would do the PT62/62 or the FS635 both are very close in power band and both have signifantly more top end potential than the HTA35

I also stock all these turbos and offer the most competative prices - PM for details

Real question is, where will you be driving your car more? Between 6200 and 8500rpm or between 3200 to 6200 rpm? Are you building a car specifically for racing it, running times or will it be a kick *** daily?

Every turbo mentioned will get you in the 9's, answer the above questions and I will tell you what I believe to be the best turbo for you!

Well ill try to explain it the best way I can. It is not my daily driver however I can say that it will be driven a little bit more on the street than the track..I guess I need to get myself to a certain point and then if I turn it more into a track car I can always get more serious I suppose..but do those answer the questions you asked me at all?

To sum it up

Is it going to be any time soon within the next year or 2 be a full out race car?-No
Will it be driven on the street a little more than the track-Yes
Is it a daily driver?-No

Fs635 or 6262 would be my choice based on the above info.. I run the 6262 on my RS which sees more street duty than track and am very happy with it.. I am confident itll run 9's no problem..

^ agreed, If it was a daily driver I would say the HTA35r... My car is a daily so I will enjoy the fast spooling HTA35r on a daily basis with great power under the curve. The cool thing is that I can still run 9's with the best of them as well

hta35r is a great daily driver for sure.. being 59mm vs. 62mm it definitely spools a little better than the pte 62's.. it only sacrifices a little on top but proves to be a 9's sec capable turbo also..

Yea but what people seem to miss is that it doesn't sacrifice anything. The Hta makes 40 more hp than the 62mm from 3200 to 6200 and after 6200 is where the 62mm wheel pulls the same 40 whp over the Hta to 8500.

For a daily, Hta35r wins, for a weekend warrior or track the 62mm wins. It all depends on what you want.

If I ever change up it will be to the new FP turbo thats about to come out if not the FS635

I'm in the same boat. Street duty first and track second. I'm looking forward to hearing reviews on the FS635 as they come in. Its between a FS635 and HTA35R for me. I need a 5bolt .63 housing to fit my current setup but that could change in the future.

All of you that ordered the FS635 w/ .63 hotside lets hear some results!

Just twin scroll the HTA37R with a T4 1.00 or 1.06 housing. Then go forth and destroy. The laggy 37Rs are single scroll. Initail test drives on my twin scroll HTA37R looks very good. As soon as we sort out this oil leak, it'll be ready to go on full time daily driving break-in duty.
