Nice! I just don’t get why he still uses stainless for the piping rather than aluminium though!
The cost to import alloy piping is way too high here in Sri Lanka. cost wise, just not feasible. we can do it on request...but i just cant see people paying that kind of price.

NICE !! Good luck with the build mate

Hey hope you guys are well and safe. sadly i dont get much time now (working 15-17hrs/day) to check in on any forums. Covid situation here is also not too great..but working through it..despite two lock downs in 2020...we've had an ever increasing work load...more than last two years combined...
Look forward to seeing some build threads !!

Thanks mate, was leaning that way myself.
Don't suppose you would know if any models of TF035 6cm have the same exhaust flanges as TD04l? If I go TF035 it will have to fit the TD04l mani and downpipe I have.
I found this part number posted by 5e Colin - "49135 04700 and upwards" it relates to TF035HM.
Hopefully you have some flanges you could compare.
Cheers
fitment of TF035 and TD04L is identical mate. so the TF035 will fit your Td04L manifold set up....so will the larger Subaru VF series turbo (single scroll). TF035hm is the correct model..it the stock turbo found in the Subaru Forrester where as the TD04L is the stock turbo found in the 2.0L Subaru WRX.
-
for the power that you are looking for..TF035 would be better than td04L. faster response.

you dont need billet main caps to run 300bhp...that's none sense. info on the TD website is bollocks too...they have severely under stated the capability of stock caps to promote/sell the billet caps..this is pretty typical of TD..
my car is running a shy over 600bhp(flywheel) at the moment on stock caps and i know many others around the world and locally here in Sri Lanka (friends and customers) who run in the 400-500bhp range on stock caps.i am in the process of getting custom billet caps now because i plan to push another +100-150bhp on my build.
there have been very rare circumstances where stock caps have failed at lower power ranges...but this is few and far between and to generalize and say you need billet caps for anything over 300bhp is just silly and any "expert" who asks you to get billet caps for anything over 300bhp is either trying to sell you something you dont't need or they don't have much experience with starlets...simple as that.
DONT get me wrong...IF..you have the budget...by all means get billet caps...but its by no means an absolute requirement for 99% of people building 4e/5e engines.
my post is not in any way a personal dig at Sam...i am just stating facts...i've seen a lot of mis-information being spread on the forum lately..
Go with what Josh has recommended.. if going with Chinese rods...choose SCAT. they have thicker arp bolts. -
Speak to Tim at TB-Developments. you can find the forged engine prices on his website/facebook page and he is reliable and respected in the community.

looks awesome mate..good job and great attention to detail 😎

Looks very good. Do these produce full boost near the same rpm as the ct9a & b I believe its around 3000rpm.
no loss in spool over the stock ct9 turbo mate.

Have a look at our CT9 hybrid. Solid power/spool and reliability. wheel horse power numbers on graphs

Small update, progress has slowed due to home and work being manic.
I know many do but I wasn’t feeling confident about having welds inside my turbo, neat welding isn’t a strong point of mine! Put something together to hold the wastegate shut without having to do so. Looks crude but feels solid.
Now just need to sort turbo cooling pipes, down pipe and wastegate fully. Then engine can sit back in the car 🤗
that will get the job done !!
