Bolt up turbocharger upgrade - Vol-2

Thanks for all the input. Much appreciated.

 

This is my DD and I won't be tracking it. I want more HP and low end torque for the street and highway just to make it a little more fun to drive. First, I'll see how healthy the VF40 is and then gort from there. If it's healthy, I'll get a mild tune to 16 psi and see how I like it. If it's not healthy I was think of the following:

BNR 16G or 18G,

IP Oil line kit,

AVO TMIC,

Grimspeed or Invidia up and downpipe,

Fuel pump,

Have it tuned to 20 psi. The tuner does a road tune or can have it dyno tuned. The road tune is $250, so I'll start with that.

 

I don't know if I'll need injectors with that tune though. It seems that most people replace their injectors. I'm not interested in going with the FMIC. I'll have to ask the tuner which 20G he has for sale.

 

Any other comments would be appreciated. Thanks.

You'll be real close to maxing out the stock injectors with the 16g, and definitely with the 18g.

 

I have no experience with these injectors, but the price is sure nice...

So would the 64 trim 62mm make a difference for the vf52

Anyone is the upgrade worth 200

What is the upgrade exactly and who's doing it?

Billet Compressor Wheel Uprade by 6 star speed up grade to 11 blade wheel and 64 trim and 62mm

I would definitely at least go for the $25 billet upgrade, but as far as the 64 trim profile, I'm not sure, you'd have to ask 6SS what the exact differences are. Just the oem profile billet one for $25 extra has extended tips, which is nice.

Teaser pix of some of the new parts for the V2 kit. cap is now anodized, new bracket (also anodized) new filter design (also anodized). Still filters to 10 micron.

Still compatible with the V1 line connections? If so, may be in for new filter bits.

Yes, still compatible.

Damn, that filter seems huge compared to the SS disk filter.

Like 5 times more filtering area? Sweet.

I still need to check my banjo fitting.

Mmmm, I like my v1, but this v2 looks waay better.

 

Did you make a v2 because some v1 filters were kinking ?

We decided to make a V2 kit so that we would have an offering for stock turbos as well as WRX/STi fitment. Without WRX/STi buyers there is no more market. LGT owners think there are FAR more interested buyers than there really are. Major manufacturers have been cutting back 4th gen offerings (meaning killing off existing products) for over a year already due to poor sales. Only saving grace for 4th gen LGT is that 3rd gen WRX share many parts.

Can't wait. Just did a new turbo but used stock lines. Soon as v2 is released I'll swap over

...the bitter truth...

Printing instructions now and the V2 kits are ready to ship.

group buy???

No GB. Sorry.

He's already giving us a deal.

Are people still having issues with fitment on these Turbos? Do they still need to be clocked prior to install? Is it such a simple process that it's not even worth mentioning?

The ones I have seen, need to be clocked.

so how long does it take to get a BNR turbo? I tried to get in contact with them 2 days ago haven't heard back
