Hey peebs,

Looking @ larger turbos but would like some users input as to the pros and cons of them.
Ideally the VF22 on an early 94 WRX but any input appreciated irrespective of YM.
Wot kinda lag r u getting, is it noticable?
Wot kinad boost r u running? Did u get the inlet modified to straight flow? What ecu r u running it with? etc etc.

Thanks in advance

Pete

There is a lot of factors with the turbos, size doesn't matter as much as the number of blades on the impellas etc.

You can mod the TD05 to a roller bearing turbo. The roller bearing turbos can tend to overspool quite a bit. But perform quite a bit better.

The site I told you about is not specific to Subarus but has plently of information about the TD05 turbos.

TD05 is a much tougher turbo than the VF series, the sleeve bearing system hardly ever fails.
