Lightbulb 22B Turbo on Spec C
Is there a any point in changing turbo on the Spec C. It has the 22B turbo fitted. Will a GREDDY one, make much change, or should be left as is ?

Thoughts please ?

22b is a vf23,

spec c is a twin scroll.

that would be a stupid and massive step backwards in technology.

The Spec C has the IHI VF36 Twin Scroll roller bearing. IIRC.

Depends on what year it is, the 2001/2002 cars will have a vf34, the 2003-2005 cars run a vf36, the S203 though is rumoured to run something slightly larger than a vf36

Starts to pull from 1500rpm to the red line and thats on the standard jap map with just an STi panel filter, the VF36 is a great turbo
