Nrw Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Was recommended by Bren. That and it helps set up the next stage of my build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoozeRS05 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Nice work, and sweet LGT. I have to imagine the turbo is at its very limit regardless of actual numbers. Which turbo you going with next? EB's Subaru journal - 2005 LegacyGT Wagon & 2014 Forester FB25 (2008 specB - RIP) IG@legacygtliving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrw Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Yea this is the best numbers we've gotten out of a VF40 car by 8hp, longest holding powerband too. I dunno what I did but I did it right lol. As of now I'm leaning towards a VF52 and a Header. It should match my driving style better than my other choice, dom1.5xtr.

BoozeRS05 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Yeah, if I were going to upgrade turbo I'd go with a vf52 or 16g. Would suite my driving preference/needs fine.

spc2125 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Yea this is the best numbers we've gotten out of a VF40 car by 8hp, longest holding powerband too. I dunno what I did but I did it right lol. As of now I'm leaning towards a VF52 and a Header. It should match my driving style better than my other choice, dom1.5xtr. Whats the power output of a dom1.5xtr? If your already at 290whp, and you get a vf52 that will prob only get you to like 330whp.... Is it worth the $600-$800 for the turbo and necessary hardware for the upgrade and headers that will be like at least $300? Plus a tune for $200 or whatever Bren charges you. So $1200 for 30-40whp... doesnt seem worth it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasejase Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 As you get above stage 2 hp, hp gets really expensive. Something to think about nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooshski Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Makes sense to me. If you already have all the supporting mods (minus injectors) and say your turbo goes, why not just upgrade to a 52. It's good power and your aren't pushing your stock block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
