Do Sti's have TD05 on them.

Can one of you lot give me a run down on what Turbos imports have.
My last scoby was a early WRX which had a TD05. It was more laggy but I liked the kick it had (coupled with other mods)
I am begining to look for an STi 4/5. I am under the impression that later cars as a rule had the smaller TD04 Turbo. What turbo do these Sti's have on them?
I really want a car with a TD05 again. Am I being a pratt? Does it really make a huge difference?
Thanks
Steve

IIRC it goes like this:
STi 1/2 TD05
STi 3 VF23
STi 4 VF24
STi 5/6/P1 VF28
Some WRX classics have the VF22, some have VF29, some have TD05, depends on year, not really up on them.

Personally I woudn't push a TD04 past about 1.2 bar.
I ran mine briefly at 1.3bar but it's working its nuts off at that and will be putting a fair old amount of heat into your inlet charge which is tempting det really.
At 1.3 I WAS running octane booster which will reduce the det risk somewhat but even at 1.2 bar I'd definately be using it too, especially in the warmer weather.

Depending on the dyno you'll probably have between 255 and 285 BHP on a TD04 at 6000 RPM at 14 PSI. Midrange boost will affect the torque not the power, but most people quote midrange boost as though it impacts on the power figure. You can run a pretty healthy midrange boost hit if you taper it off quickly (ie by 4500 RPM). It can do 22 PSI at 72% compressor efficiency according to the flow map 
although there is no turbine data. Saw one on the dyno running 25 PSI and it did impressive torque... for a while 
It will not last as long, and I limit myself to 18 PSI generally.
