I'm in bfe kansas about 15mi from colorado and I'm not a turbo expert but I believe hta just refers to the design.

I'm up for whatever this weekend. Is there a UFC fight this weekend? We could always do the Hooters thing if you want a night meet, or I'm up from whatever around lunch time Sunday

The two I think of right off the bat is how much more air the HTA 35r flows due to the compressor wheel design (7 blade@75lb/min instead of 6 blade@60-65lb/min) and its billet so you have quicker spool/throttle response between shifts. The HTA 3076R (57lb/min) flows almost as much as a standard GT35 turbo (60lb/min). The HTA series are worth the money IMO......

Aluminum alloy(permanent-mold alloy 354-T61) and I believe FP uses something like forged 2000-series aluminium cnc billet for their HTA series. I'm no guru(or scientist) on the material as these are just links I've saved from reading up on it. If you need more specification I can call FP direct for their exact material.

You going to start casting your own wheels or something and sell them on ebay?

Hey Mike I think I saw the same one except it is parked in front of Carrabba's(behind Chipoltle). I think the owner of the car works at Carrabba's or dines there quite often.
