I think its pretty good for just recreating the wheel! We buy an intake for just about 15-20hp..

Even though Buschur said he won't test the HTA 37R because he was satisfied with AMS's test, I think he should still do a test using his mitsu style housing. I am also waiting to see results from others who didn't go with the FP changes and just HTA their regular 37R.

More results, this time in a car with buschur's cast manifold and what is basically FP's cast DSM turbine housing (somewhere between a .68 and a .84).

I had kinda figured they would have used an extnded tip design on the HTA wheels. I've never been able to find a good picture of one. But looking at that picture, doesn't appear to have extended tips.

I agree, I'm done buying cheap turbos, hence the reason I paid a bit more for one that is "supposed" to be built to last. We'll see.

Do the smaller BWs last? I know some of the Honda guys were complaining about the S372 sized ones not being as durable at the GT42Rs.

I can say that i am torn between the both of these turbos if i need to get another, but so far FP wins for durability because of lack of history of BW

First time I looked at this thread, and that is crazy machine work on that wheel.

Whats the price diff between a 35r and a HTA35r?
