vf47 and vf49 - twinscroll - tell me all about them
as above
what car do they come off?
what power are they good for? and would they be a good upgrade for a vf37 jdm blob twinscroll?
not much seems to be know about twin scroll turbos

Hope this helps
VF47 - JDM WRX (S-GT)
VF49 - JDM STi
Both used on the hatchbacks, I believe they both use divided thrust bearings.
The VF49 should be capable of around 360/370bhp with the right supporting mods so not really a great improvement.

vf47 would be pointless then? what is an s-gt btw?
my brother should be able to get a prodrive vf49 with 33/34mil restrictor pill would that fit straight on the car?

The S-GT is basically a JDM WRX.
Why would you want a restrictor on a road car unless your building a rally car that is, I think the VF49 is a direct fit with oil/coolant lines from the donor car (but perhaps someone else can confirm).

i dont think he'll need the restrictor but it comes with the turbo.. he wants to stay twinscroll on his car.. vf49 is pretty cheap.. was just seeing if it is a worthwhile upgrade.. before spending 1000 on a litchfield twinscroll turbo.
