which car are you fitting it to, this will help dictate which is better / easier to use.

Lag wise they are not disimilar, power wise the TD05 is better. . it is a 16g.

The TD05 is a stronger turbo also

My VF23 produced 335 bhp and was all done. Spool was reasonable, 1 bar in 4th around 3,300. TD05 similar spool but 10 bhp plus more.

typeRv4

1997 ver 3 Sti = vf23

1997 ver 4 Sti = vf24
