FS: VF39 - SOLD.

Post by wtdash »

I saw this for sale on a Forester forum over a month ago, and decided to give it a try.

It definitely has more top than the TD04 and the lag isn't too bad, but after swapping my TD04 back in to finish some Revtronix chip testing, I'm not sure I want to swap it in again (I've done 8 turbo swaps in the last 6 months!) as my car is running very well.

I bought it used and was told it had ~30K. It has the wastegate crack.

It bolted in the same as my TD04 and my TD04's 90 elbow still worked, but the stock oil line fitment and the space between the turbo's inlet and manifold is tight.

I installed it on my EJ22T, ran 19psi @ the most w/my Revtronix chip for about 2 weeks/400 miles...worked great.

Will sell for $395 SHIPPED or I'll keep it. Seriously.
(Yes, I know you can get these on Nasioc for less, and I'm being greedy, but I need a good rea$on to $ell it.)

This pic was taken before I separated the coolant lines...they're no longer attached to each other. I used the VF11's upper line (to the tank), and the VF39's lower line (to the block) as the VF11's wouldn't fit.

Yes, as stated in the ad, this has the 'wastegate crack'. It's VERY common on this turbo and doesn't cause an issue w/boost.
