Default Thinking of changing my turbo opinions on what to buy!

I'm thinking of upgrading my turbo on my fiesta I'm currently running

t34 cosworth .55 rear housing

I was thinking of going gt28 but will I gain anything?
Or just buying a roller bearing core and shaft for my t34

any input will be appreciated

Cheers Dean!

i would think you would gain drivabilty with the t28, less lag and more low down boost. Not sure you would make more power, prehaps a little less?

Stop thinking about it and get the GT 28 you girl.

Which one are you thinking about Dean?

why do you want to change it ,

if more power just go to a .63 housing that will be good for around the 400bhp
if more power then go for gt30

.63 housing will prob make more power, but will make it drive like poo, especially if its really low comp IMO ive got a .63 on my 2.9 24v, even that is a bit delayed
