555 injectors won't fit a Classic Subaru.
Not sure why someone would build a 2.5 with 440cc injectors and 20G turbo.
At standard fuel pressure yellow 440s will max out between 320 and 340 bhp.
A 25% increase in fuel pressure might give a 5% uplift in power potential.
If the turbo is a 20G from me in reasonable condition it will do 380 bhp and I don't see the logic of swapping it for a VF34 or VF35.
In your position I would want to know what rods and pistons were used as that will have a bearing on future potential.
If you get the turbo to me I am prepared to identify the internals at no cost to you other than possible postage.
On a Classic with a slanted intercooler you need a front mount by 280 bhp. Version 4 and 5 cars will benefit from a front mount by 300 bhp and version 5 and 6 cars shortly afterwards.

well your gonna love this.. i rang the company where the work had supposedly taken place, and they have no knowledge of the work being done on the car!! even the 2 service receipts were unknown about, anyway as i havnt had a chance to have a proper look under the bonnet, i now have, it looks very standard to me, ej20! the tuner said he will have a look at the invoices and tell me straight away if they are genuine or not. so i think one of the previous owners has possibly made it up!
so yer im gutted, but might not be a bad thing if its standard as its a nice example, only thing is i dont have any history on the car
also what is the standard spec, power etc?

the problem is each setup varies slightly and depends how close people are willing to run to 100% etc.. but the reg won't magically make 440cc flow like 550cc.. usually just adds a little head room or ensures they make the 340 something bhp etc.

At least the tuner will tell you what's modified under the bonnet (if not internally) .

Be sure to relay what he says on here though, so we can re-advise on your best route for modding/budget etc...

The 1994 WRX saloon had 240PS (237bhp) and 224lb ft as std. But we ultimately have no idea if you do have a std EJ20, or indeed that stroked 2.5...

Sorry 555 cc injectors usually refers to STi pink top feed. Thanks.
At standard fuel pressure yellow 440s will max out between 320 and 340 bhp.
A 25% increase in fuel pressure might give a 5% uplift in power potential.
Different cars will give different results just like different rollers give different results.
