On 1.6 bar it's enough to make my Up-rated Exedy clutch slip, i ordered the turbo last Nov when it hadn't been out long and there was very little experience of it even in the US, for the cost saving over the MD i thought it was worth a try though
I'm sure you'll be happy with it

Nice looking motor, it feels good to finally finish a motor, aslong as your happy with it mate. Really good spec you got there, what sort of power figures have you got?

Cheers
Some of it was done by me, FMIC, Brakes, Suspension, Wheels, Interior, ICE
But all major work and servicing was carried out by ACE Motorsport, and i must give big thanks to Andy who runs ACE for all his help and advice, his knowledge of subaru's is awsome being an ex-prodrive WRC Mechanic
