TD05 me thinks Vf turbo will fit but you will have to change entry point to 90degree. MRT do a kit for this

Don't do it You can get 350 bhp from the standard TD05 with the correct mods and it will outlast most Vf's

Cool

As usual CC got in there first

Anyway yeah it`s the TD05 in the 93wrx and its one of the toughest turbos for the scoob unless (like CC says)u want more than 350bhp.
With a good map a TD05 will pull like a train almost all the way 2 redline

Does that also includes 92WRX since it is called an MY93 anyway? If so, cool, I'll take my boost up to 15 psi once I call Jamie on Monday.

Katana,

Yip one & the same car.
BTW jus 4 info I ran mine reliably for a year at 26 psi.
Unlike the small VF series turbo`s the TD can generate more boost than the std engine can handle. That`s why the TD is a good base for serious tuning. The Evo 7 uses a newer version of the TD05
