Default Turbo Advice vf39/34/30????

I'm going to order my turbo monday with my subaru dollars. I will be putting this on my 04 Forester XT. I would like to go with the turbo that will spool up fast and be able to provide horsepower around 310-350 at wheels. Any advice from knowlegable persons would be appreciated.


Cheers,

Jeff

Jeff this is off topic, but could you gain access to your ECU and tell me how many plugs are in the harness to the ECU?
It will be 4 or 5.

I say VF22 if you want that much at the wheels.

go with a 18g-20g from forcedperformance.com then whoop on the EVo's /STI's.....VF series turbos aren't that great...if possible go with a new Garret GT turbo.

IMHO, you're not going to be able to put down that much with any of those three turbos on pump gas. You need to go larger to maybe a vf22 or a large 16g to achieve roughly 315whp. Go with an 18g or even 20 if you want to be absolutly sure you've got more power than the guy in the next lane.
