Available in the states at all u think ??have a friend with 11 wrx looking at OEM fitment options. Thanks man.
Why i asked...have a wrx buddy that would like to do the same thing, haha
Mini update:
Been suuuper busy with other stuff (and really just enjoying cruising around) but wanted to mention that ive been around mid 19 psi tapering to 16, and looking like thats where she'll fall at all in all with the 565cc inj (93oct). Needless to say its RIIIIPPING compared to my last mini update about a month ago. Maybe a little more grunt left down low, but you get the idea. Based on logs once above 6K the injs started getting a little static so Ray knocked down the boost a little above the 5800 range iirc. No problem with me, haha...i neeeever drive up there, hence why it takes me so long to get a solid full pull log. That and the fact that you're moving out if doing this in 3rd fwiw.
Plus I started a journal, as to not gum up the general 18G suggestions/advice in here to much, so if anyone wants info on where im at ill be updating that pretty often.

a thread i remember about those
http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f87/godspeed-turbo-295698/
that CNT looks exactly like my FMS, which is just like the process west
hm, thought Godspeed had a good rep as a company...
as for the CNT yeah only thing i'm worried about is the hood air scoop.
I think that is GOODSPEED that your thinking of/hearing about. 6 Star Speed has some nice VF52 options/variations priced very well...with solid feedback.
And that CNT will def work, ive seen some wrxs with it, but the scoop shroud will be the exact same as the FMS one, and def won't work. So you can either scoop up the PW shroud only thats available now through rallysportdirect iirc...or modify the stocker. Ive had good luck with 2 oem shrouds modded together fwiw.
Do you have a picture of how you modded the shroud?
I forgot this is on my to-do list
I've heard things about staying away from Godspeed, but you could research it more. Just by looking at the price $565 for a brand new turbo seems on the cheap side to me - really a part you don't want to skimp on quality.
i love this thread.
moar td05 talk, please.
I really appreciate y'all posting about your IDC's...it really helps me figuring out my plans. You don't see too much of that.
