Said the same thing before looking into the turbo on my WRX, as we all know gearboxes cost a lot of ££££££££


Had the VF23 Turbo on my MY00 classic, but im sure it was a bit more laggy then the VF28 turbo on my MY04 WRX. The only reason I bought the VF28 as it was going cheap in the for sale section as the same reason I bought the VF23 for my classic a couple of years ago.

But I did get 308bhp and 290lb/ft on Powerstation rollers last week with the VF28 but I find the VF28 turbo to be a bit like the td04, hardly any lag on it at all.

Will I be able to run a vf28 on the standard intercooler without too many problems?

Id say best to upgrade the intercooler as well to be on the safe side, No point doing half the job, only to realise that your intercooler or fuel pump etc is not up to the job.

You can get 2nd hand Version 7/8 STi intercoolers for around £250, but you have to do a bit of modifying to get it to fit the classic.
