Ok peoples - Will the VF26 bolt up correctly where a VF25 was removed?

 

According to several sites, the VF25 is the stock turbo for JDM Legacy TT auto models, while the VF26 is the stock equipment for the manual versions.

The main difference is the Exhaust housing - P12 to P14 - Will the bolt holes still line up in the factory dumps?

The other thing I need to know is whether the inlet of the compressor wheel is the same diameter.

 

Can anyone shed some light?

 

Going to sell a VF26 to Chris if it will bolt up, but dont want to sell him something he can't use.

 

Cheers,

Ben


MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. To be stripped and scrapped in time.

YES the VF26 will bolt up directly and replace a VF25.
