Would this fit a UK MY98 Turbo? No major mods yet but would like to start.

Excuse my ignorance but if I fit one of these, i take it that the ECU will have to be re-programmed, enhance air intake i.e. FMIC?

Any advice wil be greatly appreciated.

How does this turbo compare ( lag, air flow, boost pressure, ultimate BHP / torque characteristics ) against say TD05, TD05/06 20G turbos?

What supporting mods would it need?

£100,000 in group buy!!!
Wonder if he has a nice ESCROW account for that

Seriously - looking at this guys Ebay dealing profile , it makes me a little concerned and he needs to prove himself before dealing with my money, let alone 199 other peoples wonga!!

Perhaps a safer bet is http://www.gruppe-s.com/

Would I get faster spool up with the VF34 than the VF24 that I have fitted at the moment? MY99 UK Tek3 299BHP.

Cheers Merv
