bigger turbo too support the more torque??
IHI turbos (the vf34 is an IHI turbo) don't use the same exhaust housing setup as the TD's. A VF34 comes with whats called a P18 rear. They can be upgraded with the next size up, p20, which has the same effect. More top end power with bigger numbers at the sacrifice of more lag.

A 2.5 (eJ25) can get away with running the larger rear housings as the extra displacement makes the turbos spool earlier/quicker.
