Buy a WRX to bolt it to ? :D:

If you're not able to read a flowchart for a turbo you can't build a properly balanced turbo kit for your car from scratch.
There are some charts posted here that might help your research and build though ;)
Building a kit is not just copy\pasting some objects on some pipes!

It's a bad idea

Get another one or two and put them all on...maybe then will you have enough flow for about 340whp...

Way too small, get a T88, that should suffice.

Now it's up to you.

There are better options, the VF39 does not have a ball bearing center section. BTW, it's an IHI turbo. Plus isn't it a dual scroll turbo? I could be wrong though.

VS8 07-07-2009 02:34 PM

its a single scroll...only reason i ask is because i have 3 friends who have turbos just laying around

I know one of the STI's had a dual scroll, either way its too small I think for the rotary. Look up the flow charts for the VF39.
