the 48 is a better turbo - end of, the 22 is getting on a bit and from what ive heard the compressor blades are fragile

a vf35 would be a good cost effective turbo for a standard engined wrx

VF48 gets my vote. I will be swapping my VF35 for one at some point.

Vf48 is a good turbo ,but make sure you get a good respected mapper to map it or your results may be a little dissappointing :

Definitely not a case of a bad mapper there midnight. It was mapped by Bob Rawle, who can only be considered to be one of the best around!
