TTT Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 A friend of mine would like to know if he can use a 1996 WRX STI turbo on his RB30DET? 1996 WRX STI turbo = TD05 which = max of about 200awkw on the 2L at around 19psi. it's worth about $400. Tell your "mate" to sell it and get something else.

MRO Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 TD05 is the standard WRX turbo - not the STI model. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/209698-wrx-sti-turbo-too-small-for-rb30det/#findComment-3716073 Share on other sites More sharing options...

benl1981 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 (edited) they came out with a range of different turbs. TD04L, TD04 and TD05. The earlier rexies (I think) had the td05 then they put in the td04L so it was more responsive (less lag). I dont know if the sti ever had the td05...but Im pretty sure they usually use the vf series..
