Default Which turbo (380-400bhp)

Over the last few months I've been slowly been adding bits to my 2003 ppp sti blob!

I have a full 3" decatted system,airfilter,walbro intank and vta bov !

I know my sti has a vf35 but I've been reading up recently about the vf43 and vf48?are these a bolt on for my scoob?

I know I can get 18 and 20g but there mega money from what I've seen? I've been told I'd need a 3 port boost solenoid and I could keep my sti tmic?


Also what other bolt on turbos would see me near these figures!

Thanks

i would go with a vf48,bolt on turbo and can be picked up for less than £400 and will make up to 400bhp

the vf43 was suited to the 2.5 engine so may be a little laggy on a 2.0

I've been reading up on the vf35 and if I changed the silicone intake to a 3" perrins/apps one and match it with a Fmic and headers I should see 360ish bhp? I mean that could be worth while!
