well i was looking over the turbo list on turbomaster and noticed that it gives the turbine and compressor info.

subaru turbos:

VF8 - RHB52XW - 10000 3X P20NR BRXLL4625CFZ

VF10 - RHB52XW - 5200 2 P15NR BRXLL4225CFZ

VF11 - RHB52XW - 5200 2X P15NR BRLL4016EZ

VF12 - RHB52XW - 10000 3X P20NR BRXLL4726CFZ

and the mazda turbos:

VJ11 - RHB52KW - 5200 2K P20NR5 BRL3911EZ

VJ14 - RHB52MW - 5200 2M P12NR5 BRKL3711EZ

VJ16 - RHB52MW - 5200 2M P15NR5 BRKL3911EZ

VJ17 - RHB52BW - 10000 3B P25NR5 BRL4016EZ

VJ20 - RHB52UW - 5200 2U P15NR5 BRUL3911EZ

VC23? I could have sworn the T-bird turbo was a VJ17... damn IHI and their secrecy. If that's the correct designation I have to change my sig.

It was actually supposed to be VC32. I went back and changed it when I realized. VC32M on the MTX and VC32A on the ATX.

Here is a pdf from a company I've dealt with on more than one occasion:

Thanks - corrected. That's a nice list, by the way. Could come in handy during junkyard searches.

No idea if mine came from an auto or manual t-bird; any difference in the turbo itself or just the part number?

Part # only.

Here is the VC32 (T Bird) map. I converted m3/min to CFM:

Thanks! I'd never been able to find the T-bird compressor map; good to have!

hey legacy777,

whats the height of the compressor wheel?

base to tip.

More than likely 22.61mm just like the rest.

Email me what you want. I don't have time to check the board regularly any more.

I can try and look at it tonight, but no promises.

The Exducer is the same, however the Inducer is larger. I measured it twice to make sure I did it right.

My numbers

Ex: 52.55mm
In: 37.48mm

Is there anyw ay that you could measure different fins and pull a 38mm or even a 39mm? It would explain another thread in a different forum in which a friend of mine used a Legacy housing and a T Bird wheel.

I measured the other fins, and they're all in the 37.5mm window.

I got .891"

so 22.63mm

In the ballpark of what sixsick6 posted.

so you are saying that both sets of fins ( the uppers and lowers) are 37.5mm.

so no variance between the fins at the top, or the fins just below them.


now looking at the turbo info i posted from turbomaster, the VF10 compressor wheel seems to be bigger. do you have a VF10, or know someone who does?

im jumping in on this becuse i own a mazda 88 323gtx, i put my front turbo fan from my legacy turbo on the 323gtx becuse it was bigger. that is all i no.

I did not measure the lower fins. I thought you just wanted me to check other fins.

I'll see what I can dig up.

BTW....here's a pic of the nice compressor wheel I'm measuring
