The RHF series are ball bearing according to this site. Also, according to this site, the VN14 spec is an RHF5B turbo which, according to the chart in the first link and depending on exact spec, is rated for 73-208 ps. This is pretty much all the info I could find on this particular turbo, your best bet might be to use the contact info in the first link to contact IHI in the US and ask them the same questions you've posted here. Don't forget to let us know how you go :yes:

IHI are quite popular in the Subaru scene I believe, with most STI's being factory-fitted with an IHI turbo of some description (can't remember spec), and IIRC VF23's are a popular swap for WRX's. I had an RHE62 I was going to bolt to an old Commodore before I came to my senses :banana:

208ps only.. ther goes my plans.. lol..

um its a whole kit im buying off my mates mate. just doing research.. basically that pic i sent all that for 1500 Z32 afm, apexi intake, 550cc squirters, mani, dump and turbo.

i have sent an email to ihi the actual company.. and 5 others to representatives over the USA.. ill let you know how i go.

looking at the pics its similar to a 28

yeah subarus use a VF series by IHI i believe

Why not just get a Garrett or HKS setup, proven a million times over.

One can only assume your cheap? Like Subaru drivers :)

ahaha yes.. not really cheap just got offered a kit.. came off a S14 in japan. imported the whole thing...

was gonna use a 2871R probably still will..

subarus are cool and u love them col..

208ps is based on my possibly wrong interpretation of the very limited info I could find, it's quite likely that the turbo you're looking at will support a lot more than that. I'm keen to hear what IHI themselves come back with :D

its not a question of how well it works, its a question of how long it's gonig to last

maybe thats why ur selling ur car? :)

It will last, but 4 cars and a bike for 2 people does not make sence.

As the skyline gets the least love its going.

Trust me. He aint sellin his car. :P

Its sold pending payment actually. Im just not holding my breath as the buyer is 18 and I dont think he will get th loan from the bank.

    • The best part of my setup is, we only have two sites. Our head office where I'd put every thing has plenty of internet capacity. We're on a 200/200 dedicated fibre. Even better, there's only like 6 people in the office at most, and the other office has 2 people in it (likely 3 soon). The majority of our work is in a custom piece of software, as it is part of the backend of the system we provide to customers. For our arrangement, on prem would be wayyyyy easier, and a VPN tunnel site to site is easy for me to manage. Scaled at many many sites, or quite a few hundred employees it's starts getting a bit different for all people outside the head office. However, everything in the cloud becomes worse for the people who operated previously at the site that held the servers, as now they're at the mercy of their internet, and not GBPS internal network (f**k the idiots who hook a desktop PC up on WiFi or permanently sit at a desk using a laptop and don't go remotely with it).   It really does come down to the business needs and structure as to what is best. For us, 365 is mainly being moved to for office apps, moving email from Google to Exchange, and setting up "Active directory". Otherwise we have a ticketing system with support that runs on our own cloud system, or the sales process sits in a CRM we pay for. My biggest push back for having most of the shit turned off and saying no when people want new shiney things is "that won't meet our security requirements, or efficiency gains, so all you're requesting is money spend to open us up to security issues, or to make our staff less efficient" Which is funny when one of our core values is "To do more, with less"
    • Think of it as a fancy iFrame with the auth passed through to PowerBI as you're already authenticated logged into Teams   I'm the complete opposite, I hate everything on Prem, it's slow as shit, you need VPNs to get anything happening, then when you want on-prem DBs to talk to say PowerBI you need to install/setup data gateways to essentially VPN back into your SQL instance. I suppose from my perspective, on-prem sucks, but from an infrastructure perspective, your environment is somewhat air gapped to the web via your firewall(s), etc.   The curse of knowledge, the more you know the more you suffer. Farken philosophical shit.
    • Would you mind uploading the pics again in your steps?  It’s not showing up. 
    • Wherever you ask them to. I had one added to the crossover pipe near the BOV as well as the hot and cold sides of the intercooler piping to provide greatest flexibility in measuring temperatures post-turbo. I have the IAT installed in one, and bungs in the other two.
