Best turbo for my build?
Hi, I currently drive a Subaru Legacy Turbo 93, with the EJ20G engine.
I'm wondering on what turbo I should buy for it.
My demands are: A turbo that will get me to around 280-300 hp, has to be somewhat bolt on and not really expensive, but still good quality.
As today my car has this for mods:
- Exedy stage 1 clutch w/ LW flywheel
- Apexi intake
- 3" H&S turbo back exhaust
- Walbro 255 pump
But the plans are to buy 550 cc injectors, TMIC or FMIC and the Robs tune 550 cc tune.
Now I just need a turbo to reach my 300 hp goal, so any help is greatly appreciated.

And I see that the 20g is very popular here in the Norwegian forums and is more likley to come across than the 16g.. Is the 20g an overkill or is it good?

Okay thanks :-) But the easiest for me is to buy Robtune, and I'm not sure if the 440cc injectors will work with his 550cc tune...

Thanks for the replies I personally think that I'm going for the td05 16g since I've heard so much good about it and it's in my price range..
I think I'll pick up a used one and maybe rebuild it. But I see people saying that the 550 cc is overkill, that I should use the 440cc instead.. But what is best? Using 440cc's without the proper tune for them, or the 550cc's with the matching tune?

I don't know the cost difference, but it's much easier to come by a td05 turbo than a vf turbo, but of course.. If I come by a vf turbo, I'm going to snag it, depends on what one though.

You will find a VF35 in breakers for £300 they're common
