What's needed for B4 Single Turbo Conv...

neni's Photo neni 05 Dec 2012

Hey guys,

Before flamed I did use the search bar.

Also came across this handy thread http://www.subyclub....b4/page__st__20

Just wanted to know what parts are exactly needed for the conversion.

I'm not looking for crazy power just enough for reliability around the 180 mark.

Would a second hand VF be the go? If so, which one. Or a new turbo?

Thanks guys

cheers,

but specifically like is a wrx manifold or sti manifold better if so whats the advantage?

i know i gotta re do the piping for me fmic, but i got the shitty ecutec tune on it atm. is it possible to reflash it or do i need a new ecu? also as per above whats a preferable turbo?

cheers, apologies for the noobnesssssssssss

VF34 is a popular turbo, should manage 180 at the wheels with ease I would think. I was under the impression that ecutek locked the ecu but in the link above he seems to have reflashed it anyway?

I remember reading somewhere that your ecutek dealer can reflash your ecu with WRX mapping.
