T34 is the turbo from an escort cossie
T35 is the turbo from some kind of scannia truck
most people refer to the T34 as a T35, hence the confusion. 99% of the time when people say T35 when talking about cossies, theyre really talking about T34s
i beleive jano was selling real T35 turbos at some point for fitting to fords too which confused things even more

thats why people call the esc cos turbo a t35,
i think a true T34 ,is a T34 size compressor and a .48 ex housing ,anything else can be called a T35, Or if they want to call it a T34 they can

Just a thought wouldn't it have made sense to give them all different numbers etc:
T34=.48 ex T34=.48 ex
T35=.55 ex T34.5=.55 ex
T36=.63 ex T35=.63 ex
Such an off the wall idea i know
but would have made stuff alot easier if they had thought about it in the begining. For gods sake no one put this idea into practice as would make it even more confusing.
T34=.48 ex T34=.48 ex
T35=.55 ex T34.5=.55 ex
T36=.63 ex T35=.63 ex

Oh dear
Lets clear it up a bit.
T34 comes from the fact that the rear housing is a T3 flanged one, and the front housing is a small T4 one, ie its a T3/4 (an RS500 is a T3/4 actually too, jus a bigger one).
T35 and T38 are TBH more real terms as basically that just gives an estimation on size, ie more than a T3, but not a T4.
Same as T2s, T25s, and T28s, its the way they name general turbo sizes.
There are still hundreds of variations of each of the above though.
So to sum up, an EscCos turbo is a T35, which is a T3/4 turbo.

None of you have given the right info on the T35 type Turbo's as you dont understand what the difference is.
A T34 is the Esc Cos large Turbo. The Exhaust housing makes no diff to this. It could have a .36 .48 .55 .63 etc.. and it will still be a T34 Turbo.!!!
A T35 has a different compressor wheel and housing to the above unit. It flows exactly the same amount as the T34 but has less lag time due to the shape and design of the housing and wheel. This is the reason that i use this type Turbo on my conversions and some engines which would suit this size turbo.
If you want more info there is a thread on my site which shows pictures of the items and results on a car which has been tested with 3 different types of turbo's
T34 - T35 - and a 4x4 Cosworth Unit.
The results and graph speak for themselfs

I know you know a lot Jano, but thats bollocks
T35 means next to nothing, just a general name for a range or turbos, or in the case you seem to be describing its the same as Turbo Dynamics call their garrett turbos TD48943487 etc etc, means nothing, just what ONE company calls their specific turbo.
Go to Garrett or any of the proper turbo manufacturers and ask for a T35, see what you get...
You get a "which type, there are hundreds of different specs you clown" answer, but the chances of getting this turbo you describe are fuck all.
so whats my turbo then? i always called it a T35 lol
its got a maram shaft, inlet says .60 on it and the zorst housing says .63 lol
it confuses the fuck outta me



it also has this, whick im told is where the wrc cars would use a speed sensor?

a REAL T35 made by garrett is a fucking truck turbo
the rest are just nick names people use to make out there turbos are "bigger and better",,,,,,, they usually have grpA added to them for a extra hundred quid and im guessing the bloke with the grpAT36 paied the most for his turbo,,, may have a roller bearing in it,,,,,,, BUT I FUCKING DOUBT IT
so to summerise the REAL term for a cossie T35 is a T34 and then look at the spec
and a stage 3 T34 with a .48 housing ,,,, id like to know what the 3 stages of mods are on that,,, guessing naming it was stage 3
