They are not bad, but not a ball bearing turbo !!

See below:


VF30

The VF30 is commonly considered the best bang for the buck turbo in the IHI VF series line. A relatively new model the VF30 features the same exhaust housing as the VF24 but a larger compressor side similar to the VF22. The combination of these two parts results in increased output potential without the lag associated with the VF22. Although it doesn't offer the top end supremacy of the VF22, the VF30 is a great compromise between these unit and the quicker spooling models.

VF34

The VF34 is nearly identical to the VF30, with the same exhaust housing and compressor. However the VF34 goes back to the ball bearing design, and in doing so achieves full boost approximately 500RPM sooner than the comparable VF30. The VF34 is the most recent IHI design and as such costs slightly more than its counterpart. Top end performance and maximum output are identical to the 30.


If you need a new turbo the VF34 is considered to be the best in the IHI VF series because of the ball bearing design.

[Sako]

ok great. thanx alot. appreciate it.

Sako,

The best price I can get is:

£635.00 GBP for the turbo, comes complete with 1.0 bar actuator and both gaskets. I am sorry but nobody wants to ship to Lebanon except UPS and they are quoting me approx £150.00 GBP.

Total price would be approx £785.00 GBP.

Hi,

Newbie here, sorry to hijack the thread, but someone said the VF30 was a 'new' turbo? How new is new as I have one on an 02 STi?

Cheers,

Not that new, that text was lifted from a thread on Nasioc which has been a sticky for a good few years now.
