turbo question

I have a chance to pick up a 40 holset for cheap real cheap, would I be better off it or should I stick with the 35?

it would flow better than the 35 as long as you can turn it.

It isn't the latest design, but they have served many well over the years. Like all Holsets, steady diets of high boost will greatly reduce its effiency and life. IIRC 40psi is about the max out of a HX40.
