07 Intake and TGV removed...

Posted a parts for sale thread...

There are at least 2 external changes to the heads I've found, so technically, a VF43 swap on a pre-'07 STI is not SP legal.

Piping for the oil feed for the turbo in slightly different.

The big one is the large vent in the back of the Driver's side head for the "air pump" hose attachment.

I'll be using a KS-Tech block off plate, but perhaps this would be an ideal location to hook up a catch can???
