you would be surprised what standard internals can handle. we have a uk2000 turbo over here running 380/350 with 120k on the clock.

erm.........no they wont. you must have deep pockets sir. a 500/500 ain't gonna be cheap if it is to be done reliably, brakes, gearbox, suspension, drivetrain will all need upgraded fella. hope you bank manager is sitting down ohh, i forgot about the new ecu as well.

td06 25g is not a turbo we hear much of on an impreza, seem to be popular with the skyline guys though, wont this be a bit laggy on a 2.0?

Custom Forged Omega's with rings at £625.00 + VAT at APi Don't imagine that the Wisecos and Wossners and Manleys etc., etc., at 300 quiddish a set will do the job. They will but not for long.
