I'm very confused by this thread...
Do you have a MY04 STi or WRX? STi = VF series turbo WRX = TD04 If you have an STi, changing from one VF to another is a waste of time. If you have a WRX, yes upgrade to a VF series turbo. It is a good idea to upgrade the fuel pump (insurance for a 8 year old car) and upgrade the TMIC to a STi unit to maximise the turbo. You can also decap your stock injectors making them 816cc, which is more than enough for a VF series. You don't need an aftermarket ecu. Search the threads for the 1001 other threads on installing a VF series turbo on a GD WRX.

VF39 is twin scroll.
You need headers, exhaust down pipe, oil lines, brackets. The air/fuel ratio sensor is in a different spot. You will definitely need a tune as well. Upgrade injectors and fuel pump to be safe

http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/mechanic...specs-faq.html according to that the vf39 is a single scroll turbo? also to "Sonic", 370NM with 95? who was your tuner? and i'm assuming 2.5L?

VF36, VF37 & VF38 are the TS.
Judging by previous threads started, he has an MY01 WRX. Any of the single scroll VF turbos will be a good upgrade for an MY01, some obviously better than others. My suggestion is get the newest one you can afford. While its getting done, I'd suggest deleting the cat converter in the up-pipe. As the car is 10+ years old, a drop in Walbro replacement fuel pump is definitely a good idea. These will be fine with any of the various ecu flashes (Verso, EcuTek, OpenEcu, evoRso etc)

Correct.
VF39 Single scroll turbo used on USDM STI and latest 2.5L STIs released internationally. Smaller than VF30/VF34. Not sure why you want to upgrade to one. In saying that I upgraded my VF35 to a VF34 and made 20hp more - 281hp lol and now with VF37 twinscroll still same hp but slightly quicker spool and sounds like a civic/truck :P (not worth the conversion imo)
