For a few hundred more you can get a VF37 complete twin-scroll setup with headers, uppipe, downpipe.... no idea if the VF34 is worth that.

Hey---found a couple of sites at 875 US.--for a 34.
Nico ---couldn't get into your site.
Re- read the thread on the twin scroll 36--seems v. good , if the special headers are well made etc.
I already have a divorced DP so would the twin scroll exhaust flange fit
to that?

Kelly must be talking about the VF34.
The twin scroll VF37 setup is usually available from that link I posted above; occasionally he gets a VF36 spec C setup in, but it's quite rare. All the parts for these setups are made by Subaru, so you know they're good. I know of no aftermarket twin-scroll headers or up/down pipes.

Oh-- so he is bringing them over from Japan -- slightly used
Perhaps I should consider getting the headers and up pipe in anticipation of finding a vf36?
Thanks on the suggestion

I was speaking of the 34.
Remember your gonna need to change the oil pan with the twin scroll.

Yep, which can be had with a matching oil pickup for about $130 from a US Subaru dealership. Lots of newer nonturbo vehicles have them.
Other than that I think you might need a twin-scroll exhaust gasket set, which the same guy carries for $50 or so. I think that's the last thing I'll need after my parts come in next Thurs.
You can ask him if he'd be willing to sell the twin-scroll hardware minus the turbo in anticipation of a VF36, but there might be a waiting list. I got extremely lucky following a link on NASIOC or Club STi or something like that.

Thanks guys---the twin scroll vf 36 looks like the way to go.
I've got the usual Thursday noon writing deadline to meet, so I'll get back to it tomorrow night.

Been pushing this decision around for a week and I'm going for the vf34.
Simpler install for a good jump in performance. Also gives yet another performance increase to look forward to
---the twin scroll at some time
Now to look at brakes.
