v4 sti wrx Turbo's


Recommended Posts

 Hey, I've been following club sub on Facebook for a fair few years now, I know the organisers/ admin prefer questions being asked through the forums....

 

I'd ask Subaru parts nz but I'd just get bombarded with bs....

 

It's probably been asked before, but what is the factory replacement turbo for a 97 v4 sti wrx... I think a vf28 would work (as I'm pretty sure they're factory on the v5 of the same year)

 

Thanks in advance

You'll often find that a lot of the people on the Subaru parts nz page are also regulars here.

 

But yeah, as mentioned, vf24,28 and 29 are easily interchangable

 

Bit more performance around the vf24 era would be the vf23 or the 22. If I remember correctly the 23 spools a little faster than the 24, and the 22 spools later but pulls like crazy up the top end. 

 

Hope that helps, and welcome!!

Thank you all for your help, and cheers for the welcoming

After looking at the price of some of the bolt on turbos, would I be better off having my current one reconditioned? I suppose it will depend on what's wrong with it?

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
