pretty sure it's a TD04, my mate got a new complete engine for his, and i brought his old knackered engine, had a look at the turbo to put on my import classic but decided against it cause it was a 4 not a 5 which i needed.

defo td04 as standard, vf28 would be good upgrade, but need minimum decat uppipe, decat or sportscat down pipe, centre decat, ppp intercooler hose and a walbro fuel pump sti injectors then a remap, best with a full exhaust though, should get low 300' s then. Also sti intercooler would be good as well.

worth fitting along with larger injectors (sti pinks for example) and a remap and see you 300+bhp depending on exhaust mods.
