Re: vf23 for svx?
It's very good on a 2L, small on a 2.2L, far to small on a 2.5L... so it would be like a turbo diesel on a 3.3L... fantastic until about 2500 rpm :P

Re: vf23 for svx?
You could always hunt down 2 of the OEM 205 turbos, the TD04. Its similar sized and they can be had for almost nothing. I think a pair of VF39s would be a better choice if you build the bottom end to handle it if you are running higher RPM motors. The larger VF39 wont run out of breathing room in the upper RPM range.
