Cheaper insurance as classed as a 2 ltr, bit risky.

Been reading into different turbos, I'm sure I've read that the VF22 is one of the better ones in the VF range, capable of running over 400bhp, I also read it can run upto 1.7 bar of boost. I may be wrong though!

If that is an STI its not a V4 its a late V3 on a R plate and the fact that the dash isn't a face lift one, R plate can V3,V4 and think on V5 too. 4 pots started from V3 on.
BTW the last picture isnt the front caliper thats rear caliper mate
