1. Off the top of my head, its possably a VF23, you should be able to see if you look around the turbo itself (it is normally stamped on there).
2. Sorry, havnt got one

What? the turbo?
Like i said, off the top of my head i think its a vf23, it could be a vf28, if its not a vf series turbo then it probably will be after market.
Do you know what turbo is on there now??

The oil cooler was only standard in the type RA cars AFAIK, it is mounted (when looking from the front of the car) down by the lower left hand side of the radiator. STi did do one as an option i believe though.

your right in saying that the V4 Type R has a VF23 the VF28 was from the V6 Type R it should say IHI at the begining of the lettering on the turbo.
I think an actual oil cooler has a seperate radiator as well usually near the front of the car ( If it has had one fitted ). They werent standard items on the Type R's
Not sure where the oil filter is though. Phone Scoobyclinic and ask them
