is there anything better than a TD05/06 turbo on a 2ltr for upto 400bhp ????

im not bothered about BHP i prefer acceleration and the td05/06 is great at this but is there anything outhere now that is proven better ???

 

Steve isnt andy.f. tinkering with a hybrid TD04 at the moment ?

 

yes he is but i wouldnt think that would be an improvement on a td05/06 ?

 

TD05 18g

 

comparison with VF22??
where buy the TD05 18g??

 

the 18g will be a superior turbo to the VF22, and if your after buying one contact andyf

 

TANKS !

 

Gussy - I'm assuming Andy (or anyone else)isn't going to get anywhere near 400bhp out of a hybrid TD04. Could be a very nice turbo from spool etc point of view, but I'd be surprised to see much more than perhaps 320 out of it even on optimistic rollers.

 

Quite a big area under my torque curve..........

18G on a bugeye

Midlife.....

 

Hades,
I will agree with you on that count I belive andy got 300bhp+ out of the standard td04 so I would expect he could get a bit more with a hybrid no dout he will post his figures as and when he completes the tests.

 

330 bhp max on the td04 hybrid, full boost from 2500rpm.
High 300's on the 18G with very wide powerband, some have seen over 400, not naming anyone (Martin )
Similar on the 20G but slightly better top end potential.

Andy

 

330bhp max from a td04 how is that

 

Hi Andy

*cough* High 300's on the 18G with very wide powerband *cough*

as McDonalds now say.....I'm loving it...........LOL

Andy - I'm assuming the full boost from 2500 is pretty much unchanged from what you got on the standard TD04, you're just getting about 30bhp more at the top end? I like the sound of that. Seems spot on to not over-stress a bug/blob UK WRX gearbox or internals, keep good drivability and yet a bit more go too.

What were torque figures and boost levels? Was that 330bhp with OEM / ported / aftermarket headers, which intercooler? Sorry for the 20 questions, just sounds like the first time I feel like a turbo change may be in order.

 

i take it andy's figures are from a modified td04 with full exhaust and headers but who else has got that power from a td04/hybrid tdo4 turbo

 

What about VF34 ? full boost around 2800 and good for 380bhp

 

XNWRX

I went for the TDxxxx series as they seem to be pretty tough critters

As my bugeye is still on finance untill 2007 I wanted something that wouldn't break...........LOL

Shaun

 

shaun with the money you make I wouldnt have thought that would be a problem? turbo goes pop no problem 2.5 here we come.

First wife shafted me on divorce..............I break even when I'm 62 years old, hopefully by then my children can drive me around LOL

Shaun

 

I fail to see how 380bhp on a VF34 is possible

 

I've seen lots of STi7/8 in the 350-380bhp range with a VF34.

 

I suspect 350 is possible but 380 ??????

VF34 has same cold side as VF35 but it has a slightly larger P18 housing than the VF35 P15 one. Still cant see it making 380. TD05's are on the limit at 370 and thats bigger still.

I suppose we could add in 10% for roller discrepencies and that would bring the 380 back down to a sensible level
