Anyone fitted a td05 16 to a hawk wrx? What sort of spool up and power would you get?

 

dont think power wise it would be good as I dont think it is ideally suited to a 2.5, probably spool up quite qucikly though but run out of steam a bit later

 

I thought the 06 wrx came with a TD05 as std ??

 

I have a 16g on a 2.5 litre, in the equivilent of a UK 4th gear I get 1 bar at 2800 rpm. Thats with a FMIC / tubular headers and STIv3 heads

 

Nope, still has TD04 (or mine does anyway )

Tony.

 

hmm

 

Heres the dyno run from my MY97WRX with a 2.5 conversion running Gruppe-S headers, 440cc injectors at a raised fuel pressure, TD05-16G FE at 1.45 bar.


Works very well in my opinion as I very rarely take it past 6k rpm.

 

Lad at work had a td05 conversion done by zen on his 06 2.5 hawkeye,had an sti tmic fitted at the same time and made roughly 340 bhp when tested..... paul at zen was chuffed how it turned out too.

 

Cheers guys.

Exactly what I was after. I want about 350ish but was thinking that a 16g on a 2.5 would spool like a td04 on a 2.0.

 

From what Andy F said on here a while back he implied that a TD05 20g on a 2.5 would give similar spool to a TD04 on a 2.0, personally I think the 20g would be the turbo of choice for the 2.5.
