BC5 Brembo/turbo

[dvssub2.0]

Hi all.

I have already done 4/2pot upgrade with zinoli pads and rotors. But I would like to know about brembos. Do these just bolt on front and rear? I already have wheels that would clear them. I changed the rear hubs for the 2pot conversion. Im not a fan of adaptors. I run r160.

Also turbo's I do like simple. The vf22 looks like it bolts on easy and has a bit of power! I have a td05 at the mo. But am in the process of building a new motor. With lots of shinny things! Well until they get bolted in the motor! Already have je .5000 overdsized eagal rods v8 crank and 740cc. Td06 look to be laggy but they do bolt up! Any info would be geart!

get your td05 upgraded to an 18g/20g wheel, better output than a vf22 and probably cost you less at the current mental made up value people seem to want for those vf22 turbos

Front brembo will bolt on, not sure about rears.. (I know stock they don't but you already have 2 pots so maybe they will?)

Need a bit more info to recommend a turbo...

Ecu, closed/semi/open block, supporting mods, heads, stock location/twisted, power goal, car use, where you want your powerband, budget...

Yea sum vf22 prices seem crazy. I have not heard of the upgrade to the td05 wheel I take it you get one from ebay or do you have a shop that dose this? About the brembos that is funny one of the subaru guys I know said the rears would bolt up and he wasn't shore about the fronts! Just trying to confirm this info.

I had mine rebuilt with new wheels at a cost of $450 for your reference (which I thought was pretty pricey as it was just seals/wheel +balance)

The front brakes I'm about 99% sure bolt on. The rears don't as the bolt spacing if different. Not sure how your 2 pot rears are installed so may still bolt on to existing setup depending what parts have been used.

The benefit of upgrading to the big brembos isn't really worth it (unless it's a track car and you're getting fade or something?). The 4pots/2pots should perform quite well when setup right, (pads,lines,tyres)

Front Brembos should bolt straight on, they did on my GC8. Main advantage is the bigger rotor, going from 294mm to 326mm. And they are a little thicker. Brembo's are also incredibly easy to replace pads on. However race pads are quite expensive for them I find.

do the brembo's have one oil one feed or two?

hay evo wrx sorry for the slow reply but. Have most parts so here goes Closed deck, fuel reg, 740cc injesctos after market rails with split feed, 650 pump, v3 sti heads, je .5 piston, egal rods, v8 crank, acl bearings, 12mm lift mani, front face mani, 3" bell exgst. um think that is it of top of my head am running td05 at the mo. Hve no ecu would love to find link g3 plug and play. I don't mind the little bit of the lag on the td05 I like how it pulls through the revs. Only running 14psi. Car has been daily drive for as long as I have had it. Probly wont be after I kick run it in after the tune. I will run the motor in on standard injector ecu ect after the build then bolt one bigger injectors drop fuel pump change turbo get tune and get a new daily! powerband not to laggy and all the way to redline with a kick you can feel in your gut. Don't have a number figure as I have just sauced what I can and seem to be going from their!
