Hey guys

Just so you know, the liberty up pipe and dump is a specific pattern - I have VF36 STi Twin scroll turbo that won't fit your car.

Yes thats true
I forgot that they had different patterns
So i believe i can only be looking for the 38, 54, 55 or the td04-hl
So if anyone can please post here or PM me
Thanks

Would anyone know if its a lot of work to customise it so it fits?

You can modify the headers to suit, and get a new dump or modify your current one - it would be a few hundred $ at least.
That said - the VF36 on my car kicked ass - peak torque at 3000 rpm and 227kw ate on e85

How much we looking at roughly if you knew?
And how much you looking at for your Turbo?

I'm after 1300 or so, at a guess I'd say ... $350 of parts (from ebay for a flange and a downpipe head) and probably $3-500 worth of fab from a reasonably priced shop on top of turbo refit costs.

And the facelift ones you can use were vf44 and vf45 by the way

Did you finish up getting your sorted? I have a td04hla complete turbo available and a brand new vf38 core still in the box.
