Im trying to determine what turbo my car has its a standard 1996 uk spec 2000 turbo.

is it the vf22? TD04?

im looking to buy a reconditioned turbo or a decent replacement, to just run stock boost. so your recommendations are much appreciated.

(1) If it's a 'phase 1.5' MY97 (from Sep 96) then it'll be a front-entry TD04L (208bhp; 214lb ft)

(2) If it's an early 'phase 1' MY96 (pre-Sep 96) it'll be the larger top-entry TD05H 16g (208bhp; 201lb ft)

No UKDM "Turbo 2000" were fitted with the VF range.


Does your car have the coilpack/HT leads in the centre of the inlet manifold? If so see (1) above.*

If individual coilpacks on the plugs, then see (2).*


* Unless, of course, a previous owner has fitted a different turbo from OEM spec.

Thanks that great, iv just bought a recon box and recon engine so want to get a recon or new turbo too. Can anyone recommend a good place to get one please?

Tdo4's are ten a penny. I would suggest a vf28 as an upgrade over the stock one. Same turbo used in the p1 and sti 5/6. Would really suit a rebuilt enegine.

Used TD05s and TD04s are prevalent on eBay (as people like to upgrade to larger turbos).

Here are some links...

TD05H turbos

TD04L turbos

I have a 95 Wrx v limited what turbo will be on
This and what would be the ideal replacement

TD05H 16g.

Good for around 320-340 bhp after a remap.

I wouldn't get anything bigger than that, given your car's age, etc.

That sort of power will be ample.

Maybe a ihi vf28, mine made 303bhp at standard boost

Andy Forrest will be your best bet for the turbo to suit your needs.
