t35 and t34 are the same turbos....
people just call a t34 with the big housing a t35 for some reason..
find it hard to believe that you can run 400 bhp on a 55 housing as mines was maxxed out pretty much about 350 ish bhp

20-30 psi and around 420 is the max it will do

Could maybe get nearer 400 if you want to kill the turbo, but what's the point in that
All IMHO

A mate of mine runs a Harvey spec engine which supposedly (sp) made 400bhp/420 lb ft on his dyno.
That was a few years back now but it was running a huge spike and holding just over 2bar with water injection and a real RS500 i/c
Boost is down a fair bit now and has no water inj but it has run very high boost for well over 3 yrs and has seen some serious use without any problems.
Although the power figures could easily be inacurate the fact the turbo has run that boost for such a long period is clearly proof that a well specced T34 built correctly will run high boost levels without failing.
I know these days its not the done thing with so many different turbos on the market but it seemed to be the way things were done back then.
I'm sure Mike can shed some light on Harveys engines and specs from a few years back

I think t38 is the way forward mate

fuck the GT's. we want anti lag!!
well i do anyhow and it just so happens that my T35 (T34 .63) has a 247 maram shaft
ok 400 is the absolute max, but who cares, 400bhp in a 2wd cossie is not going to be fast, its gonna be fucking fast
but as mines a zetec turbo its gonna be even faster cos i said so
