Latest eBay purchase....possible FAIL
Hello i have recently purchased what was described as "Subaru Impreza Ej20 TD04 96-03 Turbo charger" on ebay got it through today and didn't think it looked like a TD04 it doesnt say TD04 anywhere on it so did a little investigation into it and this is what it says on the side:
IHI
Turbo spec: VF22 9709
Serial No RHF5: 08 1096
Parts No: 4411AA235
now i have googled this and as far as i can work out these are two completely different turbos and just want some clarification that they are before i say anything to the seller also how much decent second hand ones of these go for?
Thanks

This one was destined for a starlet engine though recon it would take a bit to long to spool up on that

Would work quite well on a starlet been roller bearing, I have a TD04 equipped starlet also, great fun im sure the vf22 has been used on starlets before!

ye have seen a few post on vf22 powered starlets says boost takes a while to kick in then kicks you in the teeth not saying thats a bad thing though haha may do a little more research on it tomorrow and see what i think then

It will fit exactly the same, will just need the locating pins removing to rotate it to suit
Just buy my 5e engine and build that up, 220cc extra would make all the difference

Ye have been looking into this 5e business quite interested in it but I am guessing the engine is taller with the 5e block? As this is my project car (4efte in a classic mini) space is EXTREAMLY limited and if the engine is taller I may have to measure up to see if it will fit under the round nose also does anyone no the size difference of a TD04 compared to vf22?
Thanks
Thanks
