IHI VF43
(300-325whp, Bolt-On)
This is the standard equipment turbocharger used on the MY07 Subaru Impreza WRX STI. It can be found on both base STI's and STI Limited's. The VF43 utilizes a thrust bearing design and the P18 exhaust housing. The primary difference between the VF43 and the VF39 used previously on STI's seems to be the stiffness of the wastegate. The VF43 has a stiffer wastegate designed to reduce boost creep issues.
Expect to achieve full boost with the proper mods and a quality tune between 2700-3200rpms
that full boost estimate is identical to the vf35 estimate yet vf43 makes 20-25 hp more on a scooby
