wyatduncan1 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 So I have a 05 LGT (automatic) sedan. What would be a next level upgrade to the turbo I have now? (Stock) I have no specific power goals I’m just looking for an upgrade that my engine can handle with out any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackobxt Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Is the car stock now? Have you removed the banjo filters? Are you looking for turbo swap options or just upgrades for the stock setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pleides Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 You will have to tune the car, which I assume you know. You can plop a VF52 in our cars without too much trouble, but you'd be best suited to leaving the car stock until you have an idea for it. A VF46 is the best turbo that will fit like OEM and not need tuning, from what I understand. VF52 is the OEM turbo for a 2011-14 WRX. It's recommended to do a fuel system upgrade with this but with low enough boost levels, it should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tehnation Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 before you upgrade the turbo you should get a 3" downpipe, and a catless uppipe, a 3 port boost solenoid and an etune. Otherwise shrapnel from the uppipe cat can go through your turbo and bork it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
