Sounded even better at Collie track day back in '09 something along the lines of a spitfire was more appropriate!

I have seriously comsidered one of the BBK jobbies but they just haven't been proven enough for my liking - as far as the GTpumps version has anyone actually got a good news story about them???

realistically I am scared of lag after the old car had the VF22 on it and keeping a small turbo and the awseome spool is good for this car gets used for.

When I get a track weapon again to try and hose people it will be a long way from this car and more like the old legacy which was an animal and poorly behaved all the time.

The Liberty chassis can take some extra speed into a corner . . .

Looks great Shano... Where are your spacers though? The shadow from the overhanging guards makes it hard to see the rims!

Also... VF52 is massive fail... and has been proven by a number of people including Jme's old Liberty... But we've discussed this at length a number of times already.

Lag isnt a big problem on a 2.5L. Im running a td06-20G and I still have 1 BAR of boost @ 3000rpm on my 2.5L. And thats on older style heads with no AVCS to help.

td05-20G will have fuck all extra lag over the OEM turbo and will give you that extra 30kw atw while requiring less boost compared to a vf52.
