JmP6889928 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) Here it is folks. As everyone knows, I've done a LOT of turbos for the LGT community and as promised, I'm now building SOME brand new Custom VF52 AND brand new Custom VF39 with all new parts. Brand new Custom VF52 in Stealth Black VF52 SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD and Brand new Custom VF39 in Racing Red VF39 SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD Brand new Inconel turbine/shaft assembly Brand new Forged billet extended tip custom 11 blade compressor wheel-20%+ over stock setup and MUCH quicker spool than stock Complete turbine/shaft/compressor wheel dual plane dynamically balanced Upgraded and modified journal bearings Upgraded and modified thrust plates and bearings Upgraded piston ring oil seals Brand new center bearing support housing Brand new wastegate actuator Brand new exhaust housing Brand new stainless exhaust studs/nuts Brand new VF52 compressor housing and Brand new VF39 compressor housing Brand new coolant pipes and oil drain tube Complete turbo installation instructions and I'm available for questions and advice during installation and break in. Both of these turbos are absolutely complete and ready to install. The pricing on these is set right at $975.00 each shipped and paypal'd to your door in the CONUS. These are identical in output and performance, just 2 different TMIC mounting options. If you've been considering purchasing either a new VF52 or new VF39 from Subaru, you'll spend upwards of $1300.00 and that will get you a completely stock unit with the journal bearings that fail, piston ring seals that don't seal very well, and thrust plates that allow forward and back movement. And that's not to mention a cast 6 by 1/2 6 blade wheel that's heavy and slow to spool. The VF39 (same as VF30, VF43, and VF48) is also an alternative for a lot of TMIC (Grimmspeed, etc.) and can make mounting a lot easier without needing the flange adapter. Think about either of these if you are looking. You won't be disappointed. Thanks for looking and please don't hesitate to PM me.

KevinEdgar Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Wow, I was on the hunt for a refreshed 52 a week ago but had to buy a 440xt since I couldn’t find any. Hope someone in need finds this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lunarx Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Are these stock replacement (with stock TMIC & stock 07 Catless Up-Pipe)? Is stock Down Pipe feasible? If not, which Down-Pipe is recommended (for a 5EAT)? Also, what SoCal tuner (or OTS Tune) is good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JmP6889928 Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Are these stock replacement (with stock TMIC & stock 07 Catless Up-Pipe)? Is stock Down Pipe feasible? If not, which Down-Pipe is recommended (for a 5EAT)? Also, what SoCal tuner (or OTS Tune) is good? The VF39 is pending right now, but the VF52 is stock placement using catless UP and while it can work with the OE DP, it will be fairly restrictive. If you can find a used 5EAT DP from Cobb, Invidia, etc., you'll be much better served. You'll definitely need an AP and a tune. Dave at Cryontune does excellent e-tunes and you can find him in this community easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdXammo Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Do you think a tune is needed with the 39? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JmP6889928 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Absolutely. You'll need a tune for sure because it's the same as the Custom VF52 as far as output and that will run you very dangerously lean if you don't. Dave at Cryotune does excellent e-tunes and has worked with a lot of my turbos, both OE and Custom Style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok good to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
