Gambit Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 No the tf035 is correct turbo they was fitted to all UK Foresters and yes it's only a small turbo :( I can't understand why such a small turbo for the size of the cars
BoozyDave Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Vf35 maybe ? Wrx's had these maybe visit a subaru specialist in your area investigate more Sent from my SM-T210 Impreza wrx had td04, it was the sti that had the vf35 or td05
stants Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Cheers dave :-D learn something every day, & there's me getting the mans hopes up of a bigger turbo :O
Gambit Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Cheers dave :-D learn something every day, & there's me getting the mans hopes up of a bigger turbo :o It's one of the best things about being on here something always new to learn :)
Rick 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Author Posted June 6, 2014 It's one of the best things about being on here something always new to learn :) Its ok im changing the turbo very soon anyway.Its got a little whine coming from it and I don't see the point of fitting the same turbo again lol
Rick 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Author Posted June 6, 2014 Loads around and cheap, I'm happy enough with mine Why are they so cheap then
stants Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Loads of scooby owners wanting bigger turbos so plenty of 04's around. Ash had a pair he was selling on here a while back 1
Rick 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 Anyone now how many cats the Subaru forester has? I have a leaking exhaust looks like its been there since day one lol.With the weather being rubbish I haven't had chance to find out exactly where the leak is im suspecting its the down pipe from the turbo to middle section im not sure how many pieces the down pipe comes in.if its two pieces the cat will stay and I will just replace the worn out section.If not I will decat the the whole down pipe.
Rick 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 I tried sticking my head under the Scooby before and the leak was miss leading it could even be the down pipes from the exhaust manifold.Gonna have to wait for dry weather :( do the down pipes from the manifolds come in two pieces? carnt tell in the diagram
stants Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Thats the stock sf setup. The diagram gambit's posted is for the newer cars, we don't have the o2 sensore in the up pipe 1
Rick 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 Thats the stock sf setup. The diagram gambit's posted is for the newer cars, we don't have the o2 sensore in the up pipe Cheers mate I think its the middle piece that's gone.I will confirm tomorrow.Whats your name by the way
Rick 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Author Posted June 7, 2014 No worries mate, Name's adam Adam is the middle part of that exhaust in the picture easy to come across?
stants Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 I have no idea, it's more than likely to be the same as the classic impreza, the up pipe and turbo back sections are. Is yours looking a bit past it ? There is a heat shield on there so if that bits knackered may be worth removing it and checking the condition of the pipe it's self. May get away with removing it then heat wrapping the pipe Randomly subaru exhausts tend to rust from rhe outside in. 1

Yeah im thinking its a bit past it.The ground is still a bit wet gonna have to wait till its dry to have a look :(
Rick 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 Author Posted June 8, 2014 Im after a decat middle section for the forester now the last cat at the back can anyone help me find one on eBay or no if the impreza will fit?
Gambit Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Opps sorry I didn't realize damn and I have had that picture for so long waiting to use it :(
Rick 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Author Posted June 10, 2014 Ive ordered my decat pipe now.Done a lot of research to find out what fits.If it doesn't mr grinder and welder will be coming out to play
stants Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Good news fella, what ither upgrades you got planned ? Sent from my SM-T210 1
Rick 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Author Posted June 10, 2014 Nothing heavy.Front mount intercooler,cone filter,tinted windows,different wheels,4 pot brakes,front decat pipe and a remap,dump valve,coil overs,Wouldnt mind hitting 300bhp.I want no more that's good enough for a daily runner.If I don't get it with a td04 I will bolt on a 20g compressor wheel and housing :D
BoozyDave Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 There have only been a couple of people with 300bhp from a td04, its usually maxed at 280ish. Don't be too bothered about the max bhp, the td04 is a great little turbo, it spools well low down and gives punchy mid range. 1
