i ran into the same issue with a vf8 and came up with this... i ported the vf11 inlet to match the diameter of the vf8 intake. http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj237/mcklingler/IMAGE_0561.jpg then i made a bracket with some scrap aluminum and patients...yeah patients http://i273.photobucket.com/al...

a vf10 inlet would work also...

anyone have a vf8 90* inlet? i could make my vf11 inlet work, but figured i'd try here first.

I'm not crying...I've just got something in both my eyes, and a runny nose...

Yeah I don't get why some people need to swing their dick around acting like their all knowing. Sure a mistake was made, but there's really no reason to be an arrogant asshole about it. This site is different from many others in the fact that it's a community where people help each other in a positi...

Jesus. There is no such thing as an 18R housing. Hate to admit it, but SemperGaurd seems to be right in this case. Here's a good page with all the model info. http://www.turbomaster.info/eng/catalogs/model_ihi.php?base=ihi&pagina=RHB5 P.S. there's no need to be such a jimmy hat about it all :ro...

I believe the vf10 has the same compressor side as a vf8, but a different hot side (18R). From what I've gathered the vf11 has a 15R hot side, vf10 has an 18R hot side and the vf8 has a 20R hot side.

not sold yet! what? someone really needs to buy this. bump for a good price and seller.

you have a pm!

damn dollar and it's weak sauce. oh well i took a look at shipping rates and it's pretty much double what the turbo would cost to ship it. looks like i'm back searching on the home-front. thanks for the thought though.

i saw that vf8 and it does look perty. i think the vf11 inlet would work on it and at 12800 yen or 125 bucks the price is right. i'm definitely keeping my eye on that one.

i know what they cost. the cheapest td05 i've seen stateside was around 350. i was just saying that 200 is around my limit and i know that there are vf8's in that range...

i really wouldn't be comfortable sending the money first as it is an auction and there's no telling what the final price will be. if you are able to find a good condition td05 and the final price plus international shipping is in the 200 dollar range, then you've got a guaranteed buyer.

i see that there are some good deals, but my japanese is a little rusty/ non existent. The 90* inlet ones i did see said no international shipping.

i might be interested in a td05 for the right price. i like the idea of the vf8 as being somewhat of a middle ground between the td05 and a td04. i recently bought a great condition td04 from boostedballs and plan on using that for a summer project, but would like something bigger for daily driving.

rslc is definitely a great place to find them, but shipping could be a nightmare. i'm hoping someone has one here in the states. isn't the vf10 closer in size to a td04?

Anyone have one? Preferably in the <200 range.

i could sell you my setup for $90 shipped. vf11 just crapped out so looks like i'm going another route.

yeah i actually did the rear cam seal about 3 months ago, so it's most likely not that. i already got a 06 wrx ic and a td04 would be easier to mate to. they're fairly inexpensive and will do the job until i make the cash for a td05 and the resulting new transmission.

man that sounds really cool, but it looks like i'm gunna be working all weekend. i'll have to try to get to another meet and perhaps check out your new ride.

yeah i am. i actually just registered not too long ago. it's definitely a sweet place for us locals. hey good luck with the car. hope it all works out.

you may have already seen this, but it's in vail and seems pretty decent. http://denver.craigslist.org/car/613617830.html

i cut the charge pipe with my saab setup and it worked great. if you cut it in the right place it gives you the perfect amount of room to clamp and the perfect angle to mate to the piping (2.25''). i had an extra charge pipe though, so it wasn't a no turning back thing.

do you have either a new or good condition used knock sensor? preferably
one with a white connector. thanks.

i just checked and the knock sensor does have a grey connector, so it probably did just crap out. as for the boost issue i thought the turbo might be shot. i did see some smoke coming from it the other day, but put on the eye muffs and pretended it was nothing. i'm sure that the intake track is clea...
