VF30 turbo of VF34 Turbo?
VF30 turbo of VF34 Turbo?
i found a site that sells both turbos at the same price and was wondering which one is better? As far as all around performance (mainly response).
www.gruppe-s.com has them
If this was already posted I apologize in advance.

Something odd - Gruppe-S currently wants $799 for the VF30, but only $749 for the VF34! Usually, most outfits charge more for the VF34. Good deal!

turbine and compressor sections are identical.
Center section is different:
VF34 - ball bearing (better->less friction losses= faster spool)
VF30 - sleave

Yep, what he said, other than that they are identical turbos

Actually I believe the difference in turbo to be cartridge bearing on the VF30 and sleave bearing on the VF34 or visa versa (it's a little late here and I don't have the info at home).
I have seen roughly 200rpm better spooling from the vf34 and based on the current price would see no reason to buy the vf30 (which was replaced by the vf34 for a reason in the Spec C cars)
