That is a nice turbo, I had my eye on that one for my old car.  Those are some big injectors, don't forget to upgrade the fuel pump, those things are going to be hungry. 

Let me know how it comes out, it is going to be a whole new car!!!

In talking with the tuner, we are going with a fuel pump as i am only going for a modest tune.  looking for the smoother powerband possible, not really interested in the higest number acheivable

Awesome!!!  I bet the car puts a smile on your face every time you drive it now.

I think the best I did on my 04 was 310Hp and 330 Tq, I think that is the perfect range for our cars.  You are making me want to go to Stage 2 on my STi now....

Until 4.5 years ago, I only had owned imports. 4 different Mitsubishi Eclipses(that ran anyways, 2 more that never did). And and Acura RSX Type S. Traded the Acura for a Jeep Cherokee in July of 2007. LOVED the Jeep. Until yesterday anyways. Traded it in for a 2007 Mazda 3s Grand Touring. Needed something cheaper and much better on gas.

Though this car wont get nearly the attention all my old ones did. I dont need all those mods anymore. Its getting the windows tinted, an HID retrofit, a new headunit with navigation/sat radio, and possibly lowered 1.5". Nothing more is needed.

Driving a '09 Legacy 2.5i. Would love to get an Honda S2k, but I just don't have the means at this time to afford both.

I'm on my 6th Subaru. First car was a 96 honda accord, then I got a 2002 WRX Wagon, 1992 SVX, 2002 WRX Sedan, 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder, 1997 Outback sport with WRX motor swap, 2006 Legacy GT, and now I currently only drive a 2012 Outback.

My favorite car was the WRX wagon, most fun was the MR2, and most practical is my current car, the Outback. I also own www.ctsubaru.com  ;D
