If you do a search, you will find that adding a vta of any kind will have NO performance benifits, whilst introducing problems such as bore wash, lumpy idle etc.
I also went down this road, (stupidly) and within 2 weeks, I re-fitted the oe valve.
I found that the vta (turbo xs) actually increased turbo lag, and made the throttle feel like switch, i.e. very difficult to drive smoothly.

As soon as the local Subaru dealership opens on tuesday I'm going to get a standard re-circ and put it on. Then I'm going to take a lump hammer and smash the hell out of the Bailey so it can never infect another Scooby.
Save yourself some money and don't bother.
