Sorry fellas - Just bought a second hand VF34 from Ebay .. $715 which is seemingly a good deal for a turbo which has 1000KM's on it.

Checked everything i could! Reputable seller, no anti-lag .. boosted to 17psi .. Homework was done as best it could be.

Next operation, recieve turbo .. fit it to car, dyno time at ASG. Emailed them today, car booked in for early April!

No more TD04L .. I have no idea what to expect from this turbo, but i've heard good things!

Fuck yer !!

That'll be the limitation i reckon. I might do them at the same time, not sure yet - Will depend on finances.

If not i'll take the 440's to 85/90 IDC and see what it puts down.

Sounds stoopid .. But do you really feel a nice solid gain in comparison to the td04 on a tuned 34?

Trust me you will notice the difference between a TD04 & VF34.

Hard to comment as my VF34 runs a P20 rear now but I did get around for a few days with the standard VF34 and it was a nice jump in mid & top end but ran out of puff big time on the 2.5....should be nice on your 2L though.
The difference in size alone will only exagerate really how small the TD04 is......
