Default b4 twin turbo

Has anyone on here done the twin turbo conversion to there impreza? What are the pros and cons to doing it over a 2.1 or 2.35 build?

Difficult to map, no performance difference over a single turbo and why not just buy a Legacy?

No real advantage.The TT is much more complex & gives 280bhp as standard & is difficult/rare to get big power upgrades.The 2.1/2.35 is a much more common route & you will have far more options
.Also you can pick what sort of power you want to go for.

Going single turbo is an upgrade to the old tt legacys. Newer turbos spool lower down and give more beans up top anyway.

For its time it was great, but by the standards of modern turbos it wouldnt make sense.

My tt legacy is now single t and ive never looked back. :-)
