huntzmax Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/bolt-up-turbocharger-upgrade-vol-1-closed-119177.html Now my Tuner is not very happy with anything with a "g" in it. So I went with a vf52. I have stock fueling and oiling with the banjo filters removed on my wagon. The vf52 came from Mike at http://www.AZPinstalls.com contact him for current pricing. I bought my Invidia up/dn pipe from http://legacygt.com/forums/forumdisplay.php/tuning-alliance-121.html and have him take care of all my tuning. My Catless Dp is loud without mufflers, with the stock mid pipe back it's not bad at all, in fact it's to quiet for me. My vf52 was installed at 142,000 miles car almost has 168,000 now. Okay, I just ordered a used Sti uppipe. The next thing I want to get is a AP? I am thinking ill get the Cobb. And get it tuned. As far as the turbo, I need to figure out what one that will bolt onto the sti uppipe and the stock intercooler and possible aftermarket dp if I have to, according to the turbo that i select. I am really new at this and I appreciate the responses I am getting. Will the vf52 bolt right on? Did you do new injectors and FP? I am looking to make this not to complicated or too expensive. Thanks again guys. p.s. I have done tons and tons of reading. I just need to some more input. Thanks, Dustin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolmers06LGT Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Max is on stock fueling. Also, the vf52 will bolt right up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Capacity Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 What he said, my vf52 from Mike at http://www.AZPinstalls.com which came the day after I ordered it is a direct fit and uses stock fueling with a proper tune. It's the newer turbo that Subaru uses. The car get 24+ mpg and will get over 25mpg on the highway. Not bad for 280whp on a mustang dyno. FYI, most mustang dyno's read lower then other dyno's. FYI, you should replace the oil return line and removethe banjo filter from the back of the head. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it. Engine Build - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
