How much boost is the MY99 TD04 capable of efficiently producing?

 

TD04L ... hmmmmmmm .....

1 Bar of boost ...if u intend to go more then that ..... get IHI VF28, VF24, VF23 .. any bigger the lag is gonna kill U.

 

I have set mine to 17-18psi which i achieve easily at max torque (MY99 247lb/ft at PS) but the turbo runs out of puff at high revs.

also consider changing to a 3-port solenoid which will make your turbo more efficient.

Thanks for the info! I will be using it on my US spec '92 Turbo 2.2L Legacy which now has a tiny IHI RB52 or some such thing. The US spec 2.2L Turbo came WITHOUT an intercooler running on 8.5lbs of boost with a 6500rpm redline. Peak torque is 186lbs-ft at 2800rpms with peak hp at 168. I bought the unit from some bloke in AUS. He advertised it as a TD05 and shipped the TD04L instead,*******!

I should think it should be well suited (perhaps better than the TD05?) I have a full 3" exhaust from the turbo back and a K&N filter in the stock airbox, what should I do next?
