Hi there

Personally I prefer VF34 which has been best on the our WRX,some people prefer VF35

If budget is low,have look on older TD05H(which is TD05-16G) which will make yours target and can be found for good money

When I read about the td05 apparently I need to get a front entry but how do you know which is which.

The classics were top entry weren't they ? I like the idea of the VF ones though, faster spool ?

I agree with Jura vf34 is a cracking turbo for the money if you can get one, I've just fitted one myself, vf35's are more common so easier to get hold of and cheaper.
