hi does anyone know what the standard turbo unit is on a 2002-03 bugeye uk sti? also would this be a good upgrade from a tdo4 on an my2000 uk? thnks

I think the Bugeye is still a TD04.
Try the STi VF35 Here's mine collecting dust Soon to be fitted.

 

where do i get one of those from?

 

he said Bugeye STI, which is either a VF30 or VF34.....which holds boost better than the VF35.

 

Whoops Dunno how i missed that #
If a VF35 is good enough for the WR1 - it's good enough for me

 

nice one neilo,looking at stopping at around the 300bhp mark and i like the faster spool up of the smaler turbos im going to try and get hold of it then

 

02 sti has a vf35

 

not sure it does mate, the 03 on does....the 02s had a mix, Marklemac on here was selling a VF30 off his 02sti...so that definitly wasnt a VF35! Some of the later ones had the VF34 which is regarded as the weapon of choice by many for between 320 and 340bhp applications

 

scooby.79 - your aims are the same as mine
I presently run an MY99 with full decat, k&n, and Tek3. I achieved 257 bhp and 252 Ib/ft but did have a suspect clutch at the time so may be a touch short on the real figure (and maybe not!).
As well as the Vf35 waiting to go on, i have fitted an STi 6 intercooler and am just waiting on a Walbro fuel pump, intercooler splitter and tilt kit to arrive. I'm fitting everything apart from the turbo which Scooby Clinic will be doing hopefully along with a tweak to the Tek 3. All this will mean 300+ i hope
The only thing stopping me at the moment is a real soft spot for a Lotus Elise

 

vf34 is from a jdm sti7 sti
ive got 1 on my uk my00 and with other mods it makes around 350 / 340

 

thought you had 450 dazza. thats what you told everyone on donnycruse or are you not the scoobydazza from that site in doncaster?

 

PMSL similar situation - my eyes keep wandering to the Suzuki GSXR shop.

 

although id like to go this far i thought the gearbox brakes at this point, thats why i was aiming for 300

 

what mods you got, a planning on going for that sort of power myself on my UK MY99 in a few months, how does it drive?
