VF22, 24, or 34?

I am looking at changing my VF24 out for something with a bit more kick. My first idea was to go with something that is a direct bolt-in and can still be supported on the stock injectors. I have searched around for a side-by-side comparrison of these three, but have only found a few sites that have limited info. Pretty much, from what I have read thus far, the VF22 makes bigger power than the other two, but spools slower. The VF34 spools faster, but estimated power was never listed. The VF24 was never mentioned at all. Any info would help. Thanks.

Vf 34 is best all around turbo out of those three. If your looking for more power id just upgrade your injectors to the sti 565, fuel pump and get something like a big 16 or 18g. If you are going to be satisfied with the hp of a vf34 then id go with that, but from my experience when you get that your going to want more, and then your going to have to sell that and upgrade to this. But if your going for the IHI series id go vf34, its the best all around turbo.

Get the vf22, I'm not a fan boy of mitsu turbos. The spool is not bad at all, the power is just right and you can't beat the price. You will have to upgrade your injectors to some pinks though. I think the vf22 is the best all around turbo.
