IHI VF24, better than standard UK blower?
I've been offered a new IHI VF24.. Is this capable of higher boost levels than the standard "UK (Face lift classic) Turbo" blower (VF22?? ) and are the UK spec injectors up to the job?
Thanks peeps!

The VF22 is a monster of a turbo! If the VF24 is being offered to you at an attractive price then Id have it. Its essentially similar to a later VF29 although the VF29 has an improved turbine design.

I'm going to see if the guy will get the turbo to me so I can take a look at it and compare it with what I've got.. Correct me if im wrong but isnt the TD04 a solid bearing turbo? Defo does not feel as laggy as a solid bearing turbo..

The majority of turbos have a thrust bearing, as do the VF24/29. The TD04 feels perky due to its size. It spools quickly because its small, not because it has a roller bearing compressor.
