What is the difference between the VF39 and VF52?
My speculation is the VF52 has roughly the same flowrate as the VF39 with a very similar intake side but with a smaller hotside. Spools slightly faster but has slightly less peak capability. im kinda sad. at my dyno a 07 wrx with a VF43 put down 14 more HP and 12 more TQ AND is running less parts than me.
Is the VF52 a good car?
The vf52 has great potential, most people under estimate it which is a big mistake. You dont have to tell me about bolt ons cause ive done em all. I refuse to do TGV deletes, cams and intake manifold.
