VF35,just keep it if it's only 360 bhp that your aiming for.As the VF35 with the right engine mods will get you power just under that figure.SJ.

Is the SC36 stronger than the VF35?

the vf35 is crap, sti owners generally sell it on to wrx owners along with the spoilers and blue seats and other stuff they dont want

the sc36 spools much better being a billet turbo.

TD0518G might be a cheaper option than an SC36.

Nothing wrong with the VF35 at all,but the SC36 is a better turbo.The OP is aiming for around 360,so as long as the VF35 is a goodun i would not waste money for a extra 20/30 bhp unless the turbo needed changing or you have come across a SC36 cheap.SJ.

I saved over £1000 getting a TD05 and it's great for the drag strip, but on the road it is friggin miserable.

Really dangerous at roundabouts.
