FAQ's on factory turbo upgrades

iloveturbos · 09-10-2002, 04:39 AM

is there somewhere i can check out that breaksdown the different turbo's that can be upgraded on the WRX? i went onto mrt's website and got a little bit of questions answered, but it actually got me more confused. im mainly wondering if all the VF series turbo's bolt right on, or modifications are needed, and im assuming the smaller the #, the bigger the turbo, correct? VF22's are suggested to be used w/ nothing less than a FMIC, while txs's stage 4 uses the VF30 w/ stock IC. thanks for any help.

Unfortunately its not sequenced like that. The vf22 I believe is the largest actually.
I dunno if there's any pattern to their labeling, I wish it was as easy as smaller to bigger #...
