Default My VF30 turbocharger for sale...

Removed from STI at 24K miles, Removed due to upgrade.

Car always warmed and cooled, with regular oil changes.
No shaft play or smoke from this turbo at all.

The will bolt directly onto any front entry turbo impreza. Late classics and all newage. A great WRX upgrade.

This turbo will see a genuine 330/340bhp with great response and spool.


Letting this go for £300

All joking aside fella you could bolt this up, change the injectors for some pinks, and tweek your map and thats it!!

You can always sell your turbo and injectors to offset the cost.

It would be a very inexpensive upgrade and your engine/internals would cope perfectly.

You know you wanna give that WRC rep the go to match the go to match the show fella

Cheers for your interest and patience, Ive been away for a few days and have just got home.
These are £425 from most Subaru breakers and you still dont know the condition or the history of the turbo. Mine is a genuine unit from my own car and i know its a good one.

Feel free to ask Zak about it if you wish. £300 and its yours.

£300 for a good 340bhp capable turbo is an absolute bargain.

Thanks anyway Frayz, but I'm going to leave it.
I've had a word with Zak and it's going to cost me another £200.00 to fit + £25.00 for the gaskets on top of the work I'm already having done (Remap, injectors fitted & an oil change), so it's just working out to expensive for me . Sorry to mess you around. But here's a free bump for you.

hows this compare to a TD05 16g...?

i'm up grading my pony TD04 in my 02 wrx, i've already got a used TD05 i got off ebay for a really good price which i can sell on, does the VF30 have better spool up?

The VF30 will probably be slightly more responsive than the 16g and at sensible boost levels will be very similar to one another.
