wow.. really? i talk to people all the time that do it.. and i was talkin to paul@ DB yesterday when i was there and he said with the right set up u can probably get close to 300whp and 300 wtq on stock turbo.. but that is like the ultimate on that turbo...

but ya.. i am always talkin to people who went ahead and tuned there stock turbo with other mods as well

 

You won't get anywhere near 300/300 with that turbo. All you'll do is kill the life of it by trying. I'd be lucky to get 300/300 to the wheels with my vf39 turbo.

man.. dont u want to get tuned by ED??????

he claims hes pulled way above 300/300 with a vf39!!!

and i know a guy who with his td04 pulled 260whp and 280 tq and he was stage 2 on his 06 wrx and an STI tmic!

 

Yes, I am going to be tuned by Ed.

It's not a claim, I've seen the dyno sheets. That STI was also on 100 octane with P&P'd headers to get up and over 300/300.

Does the guy you know have the actual dyno sheet online? Anyways, those look like descent numbers for a protuned 2.5L WRX. Remember, yours is only a 2.0L. Try searching the Power Bragging forum on nabisco on cars like yours and you'll see.

 

that stock td04 is weak especially on the 2.5 is anyone going to the maita subie meet, i missed the in-n-out meet (damn ufc fights)

 

I'm not.

Ya, we were all wondering where you were!

 

Oh its deff possible to get above 300WHP on the vf39. Espcially on EDs tuning software. Race gas tune will deff put you around 330ishWHP, or better yet running pump gas plus Meth ;-) Close to running same as race gas and making similiar power, and a sheeeet load of TQ. Well over 350ishTQ

 

ya i know on my 2.0 it would be near impossible to get that with a stock turbo! but anything is almost possible lol

 

Ed hit over 400wtq with that 11 sec '06 STI w/ vf39. Crazy shiz!

 

take that td04 and use it for a paper weight,i have seen vf39's for 300 bucks if i had the funds i would have tossed mine long ago........ and then that power wheel tranny would soon be in the dumpster. noone wants to go to the meet?

 

i cant.. unless it is close.. im in the bay right now!

 

Fer sher. That '39 or '34 has nice power gain for price. I was just talking to a guy yesterday with an '07 WRX and busted his 3rd gear with just a vf39...

 

are you getting a protune this weekend. did you get the cobb ap? i got a stage1 map (FREE!) the car is stronger with a better power band but i have boost creep in 5th so i took my aem intake off and still damn boost creep so my stock map is going back on. so much for my new power gains

 

Your boost creep problem is from the wg. Nothing to do with your intake. Send Cobb's support an email about what's going on bc they have different versions of that map if you keep getting fuel cut like that. I was getting the same thing, but I tuned it out myself.

 

i used an xpt-gabedude map looked online and it said not to use an aftermaket intake , thats what i get for using free maps! the boost creep only happens when im in 5th and give it half to full throttle.
