Yoda Member 131 Member For: 21y 6m 16d Gender: Male Location: Country Victoria Posted 19/01/04 01:11 AM Share Posted 19/01/04 01:11 AM Why twin turbo's? Subaru will tell you it is a nightmare. Why do you think the B4 has be reverted back to the single turbo and renamed the GT. Don't see the point in 2 turbo's when 1 will do.Just my $0.02 worth. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will all depend on costs, performance and availibility of these parts. It is a bit of a dream project for him. Hopefully there are some members that have the expertise and connections that may make this project possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure all is good with the engine first though... VL's are what, around 18 yrs old now???? You dont wanna have an expensive setup and run into problems.... anyway good luck with it all. Rahib (?) do drag VL's I think, maybe you could ring them. Their movies are always on overboost.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cousins boyfriend has a VL (I think, the one with the pop up kinda headlights) calais and it has been turbocharged. Quite a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they did a lot of development work on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
