Its a 2001 bug eye wrx. hooked up the boost gauge today and its holding 14 psi and dropping off at 5500rpm to 11 psi. What do they run as standard. Looks then as though its bin chipped. What power will it be running. no real mods.

Also the turbo looks tiny. My mate has a sierra 2wd cosworth, with a standard t3 turbo on it, and itsa alot bigger than mine. his is running 340 bhp with 400 punds per foot. Any help well apreciated as I am new. THANKS

 

Turbo is a td04 and would appear standard boost to me, Just under 1bar

 

Sounds normal to me too.
Different impreza's come with different turbo's, the STI versions usually have a bigger turbo (newage) and the UK WRX's and 2000 turbo's usually run the TD04 (though pre 97 they ran a TD05 turbo which is bigger than the td04)
Classic JDM (japanese domestic market) cars (STi's in particuar) run IHI VF series turbo's (except the early ones which ran the TD05) normally VF28 or VF30, the 22B ran a bigger VF22 turbo and classic WRX (also japanese domestic market cars) wagons ran the TD04.
Its not quite as easy as what ford did, there are many different turbo's on these cars as you can tell
New age STi's run either the VF34, VF35, VF36 twin scroll or VF37 also twin scroll (2ltr cars) the S204 and Spec C type RA-R both run the VF42, new age 2.5's runa VF43? though im not too sure on that one.
