Nah just got it running the other day, That photo was at the strip a couple of years ago where it managed 14.8 @ 98Mph with a non turbo EJ20 in
it.
Cooling is perfect. temps get to about 80 degrees when the fermos kick in which bring the temp down to about 65- 75.
Water to Air set up has just fried a Davis Craig water pump but even before it seized. under full boost the air intake was around 60 degrees, I think
only because we had air pockets in the lines.
It goes hard every one that has been in it thinks its fast enough but I have already started shopping for a new turbo!

You guys know what turbo i have? the engine i think is a early Jspec RS turbo.
feels like it needs a upgrade its boosted to 14 PSI at the moment. is there any turbos that will bolt straight on that will increase performance with
out breaking the bank?

IHI VF28 which I think was standard on the V3 or V4 Sti's. Takes really well to boost, easy 20psi and does not lag as much as some of the other VF
series. When it comes on boost and well tuned pulls hard to redline, well it did in my old Forester GT which pushed 170kw atw at 16psi.

That's too low shirley?
Doesn't the stat open at around 78°C and is fully open at 91°C or so on the WRX? (That's the figures for an EJ20 NA so I could be wrong - feel
free to correct me if I am )

Hi
Good reading. The back guards on your car look fantastic.
My motor came stock with a VF30.
Steve
I found this info about VF series turbos on a local Subaru forum.
VF series turbo comparison
After searching for ages in all sorts of places i thought i would put together a collaboration of everything i have found so far about the vf series
turbos
VF22
This turbo has the highest output potential of all of the IHI VF series turbos and is the best choice for those who are looking for loads of top end
power. The top end power however, does not come without a cost. The VF22 spools significantly slower than the rest of the IHI models due to the larger
P20 exhaust housing and is much less suited for daily driving than some of the other models. Although the largest VF series turbo, the VF22 is not
quite optimal for stroked engines or those who wish to run more than 20PSI of boost.
VF23
This turbo is considered a great all-around turbo. Like the VF22 it utilizes the largest P20 exhaust housing. This housing is mated with a smaller
compressor housing of the of the VF24. This turbo is considered optimal in applications with range from mild to slightly wild. It does not have the
same top end power of the VF22, but spools up significantly quicker.
VF24
This turbo shares its compressor housing with the VF23 however, this housing is mated with a smaller (P18) exhaust side. The smaller characteristics
of this turbo allow it to provide ample bottom end power and quick spool. This turbo is very popular for Imprezas with automatic transmissions and
Group N rally cars.
VF28
This turbo came standard on the STi Version 5. In terms of overall size, it is smaller than the VF22, VF30 and VF34, and about same size as the
VF23.
VF29
This Turbo is nearly identical to the VF24, with the same compressor and exhaust housings. However the compressor wheel in the VF29 is has been
changed slightly. The changes made to the compressor wheel in this model are generally viewed as improvements, and as such this unit is typically
chosen over the VF24.
VF30
The VF30 is commonly considered the best bang for the buck turbo in the IHI VF series line. A relatively new model the VF30 features the same exhaust
housing as the VF24 but a larger compressor side similar to the VF22. The combination of these two parts results in increased output potential without
the lag associated with the VF22. Although it doesn't offer the top end supremacy of the VF22, the VF30 is a great compromise between these unit and
the quicker spooling models.
VF34
The VF34 is nearly identical to the VF30, with the same exhaust housing and compressor. However the VF34 goes back to the ball bearing design, and in
doing so achieves full boost approximately 500RPM sooner than the comparable VF30. The VF34 is the most recent IHI design and as such costs slightly
more than its counterpart. Top end performance and maximum output are identical to the 30.
VF35
The VF35 has identical internals as the VF30 and it uses divided thrust bearings. However, the exhaust housing is a P15 which means this turbo will
have fantastic spool characteristics. This turbo is standard on the new WRX Type RA. LIMITED SUPPLY.
VF36
Roller bearing version of the twin scroll VF37, also has a titanium turbine and shaft for even quicker spool. Same compressor housing as VF30/34,
however twin scroll P25 exhaust housing provides slightly better top end output due to reduced exhaust pulse interference. This turbo is good for
400HP and used on JDM STI Spec C from 2003 onwards.
VF37 (thrust bearing)
Enter the age of twin scroll IHI turbos. Same compressor housing as VF30/34, however has a new twin scroll P25 exhaust housing that provides slightly
better top end output due to reduced exhaust pulse interference. Twin scroll also provides better spool up for improved low down response over the
VF30/34. This turbo is good for 400HP and used on JDM STI from 2003 onwards.
VF38
Twin scroll turbo with titanium turbine and shaft. Smaller compressor housing than VF36/VF37 provides tremendous spool up capabilities but less top
end than VF36/37. The spool capabilities of this turbo are demonstrated on the JDM Legacy GT, which reaches peak torque at 2400RPM.
VF39
Single scroll turbo used on USDM STI and latest 2.5L STIs released internationally. Smaller than VF30/VF34.
VF42
Exclusive turbo to the S203/S204 models, this features a twin scroll design with a slightly larger compressor than the VF36/37 turbos and different
turbine design (more blades). The VF42 is a roller-bearing turbo and is likely of similar size to the VF22 turbo, but with twin scroll exhaust housing
for faster spool and superior top end performance due to reduced exhaust pulse interference.

So i must have a VF24 right?
if i made 130ish RWKW before on 14lbs and im after the magic 200 RWKW what turbo should i be shopping for?
will the VF30 be able to flow enough to make the extra ponnies? or will i need a VF22?
also what mods will be involved to do the swap over?
And looking at my pics do you guys think i will be able to do the swap over with the engine in the car?

congrats on reaching your power goal,
just wondering how you find your setup, I've heard good things about the vf34, where the albins gears a good upgrade, what sort of gains did you get
from the wolf 3d was it easy to tune?
