Default VF48 on 2.0 STI - dyno ?

Did anybody try this turbo on a blob STI ?
Have done lots of searches, but couldn't find any dyno output

Clearly this turbo is very good on a 2.5, but how is on the 2.0, what is the torque increase and how much spool is lost(if any) ?

Been looking for a while now to upgrade my vf35, and I do not chase numbers. I'd like to get more torque mainly and not loose low-end, and I'm thinking this turbo might just be it

If anybody has some experience, please share, also would love to see the dyno output(for a 2.0)

Thx, looking forward to see it. EJ257 is a 2.5 though, right ? supposedly it is very good on that.

What sort of power will these turbos do on a 2.0? Are they in the 380-400 bracket?

Not quite. Seen 370s but that is a push. Best to compare them with 18g but with better spool up.

Did one today on a 2.0wrx and was very nice but not on the dyno for a few weeks so can't say for definite what the power was.
