ive had the 3set of pulleys for few years now i didnt notice much power difference however on the twin turbo engine it did make it rev more freely, these are now on a rebuilt forged v3 sti engine using only two pulleys due to flipped manifold and have been on since engine was built run-in so with reguarding to lifespan hopefully give me a few years and ill let you know no ill effect on engine or dramatically anyways, done almost 20k so far
cheers solja

this was my first attempt and got it all up and running with factory ecu and icv, looks abit different now as with aftermarket ecu has removed afm icv and silcones all been shortened cleaned up

i got the same turbo on a v3 forged engine, at moment im running 14psi on low setting and 19 on high, vf22 tends to break if used over 20-22psi+ for long periods, have watever you want on low setting 12-15 and 18 on high if you wanna boost day in day out. the bigger the difference between low and high the more youll feel the difference if you have a remote button on steering wheel like i do

I relocated battery to the boot about 6months ago and had no problems, reason i done it was mainly for convience but also to have a place i could put the ra watersprayer tank in the engine bay and with battery being similar size i thought it was logical. after i finished it shortened all my amp cables and helped clean things up definately a worthwhile task if you run tons of electronics like i do 3amps,inverter,playstation,scanner etc

ive used valvoline vr1 semi synthetic 10-40 on a rebuilt v3 engine for last 15k and plan on sticking with it

just alittle off topic but i was wondering what the weight figures of the sti spec c were, also the if anyone knew the v8,9,10 to , reason im asking is i got a sti v3 in my bd legacy sedan and weighed it for the second time and as twin turbo it was 1380kg now as sti its 1276kg and i havent done any weight reduction yet though its on the cards,itll be a long road to get the legacy to handle like spec c but can it be done

this on a rebuilt v3 engine but everyday driving on a gt sedans 50litre tank i get 450km and done a night trip from chch to alexandra boosting most hills and off a full tank i got 610km before fuel light come on, pretty dam good i reckon compared to the old twin turbo that guzzles each time you wanted to have some fun
-
random question but assuming the fueling and engine can handle it what could you net kw wise out of a vf22 230-240kwatw?? or am i way off

i went frontmount on my v3 engine bout a year ago, heres my opinion only. performance wise i didnt get that much more lag over over topmount , turbo kicked in 400rpm later with the piping like zarnahs pic. powerwise i did noticed a small gain but mainly no heatsoak like the topmount. I then flipped manifold and the turbo and theres little to no lag difference in when the turbo enguages than over the topmount. i do agree frontmounts are not needed on the adverage subie but i do reckon its worth it and im liking how simplifyed the engine can become once the topmount is removed and things start getting flipped
