Default Turbo choice time.

I have just rebuild my my94 engine using the following components: new crank, acl bearings, h-beam steel rods, forged pistons, ported heads with stand cams and all gaskets and seals are subaru items. I also have fmic, hks air filter, hks bov, full exhaust etc! I need to know what turbo to get before mapping. Does anyone know what would suit my spec best?

The TD 05 18gram is a good choice i reckon thats what I got on mine its running 330 brake and despite what people say its not that laggy, but i have got a top mount intercooler and not fmic so i dunno how this would be on your car.

Yor starting point has to be a decision on how much bhp you're after

I'm not searching for a power figure, just a quick car thats also usable on the road and isn't going to go bang every 3months! Thanks, I will try these guys out.

I have a td05 fitted now, I presume the 18g has different internals? I have read a lot of threads that mention the 18g, where can you get the bits to do this?
