just been reading another forum about someone wanting to fit the TD05 turbo to their subaru as an upgrade, but everyone is recommending it remapped straight away or could blow a piston. Im wondering if this upgrade was done on my subaru without it being remapped, hence the no compression on my no 4 cylinder

Default sti or not?

He has been advertising on ebay for a long time, cos i'm always up just for a look.

Are your lower suspension arms ali?
Do you have sti logo on the clocks and on the front seats?
your intercooler should be silver.
it should have a carbon/ali upper front strut brace.
intake manifold should be red.
engine block should be semi closed deck aswell.
it should not have front spot lights.

the white one he has for sale is an sti, not the silver one

anybody wana correct me, please do!?...

I think he needs reporting to ebay aswell, they dont take crap, they just get rid of him, but i suppose he will trade under another name.

I believe thw WRX also runs with the TD05 turbo as standard or thats what I have been informed by fellow scooby net members, I now have the car back and it goes like stink, and is totally serviced all new belts pullies etc so it will be good for a while now and hopefully should not have any further problems. The guy is advertising under several names I have noticed. I have trading standards investigating the guy as his adds are cut and paste so there will be plenty more people in my case if he is not sorted. Thanks for all the replies, its been great. Best of luck to you all
