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.

I've got one of these on the Type R I bought yesterday, it's great. The car's got a lovely unstable idle, and gearchanges under power are accompanied by a nice big sharp jolt.

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.

Just got mine off ebay for 90 squid instead of 130 odd from other scooby companies and had no probs at all mate and mines a 05 WRX, i also had a MY00 classic shape with a bailey dv and again no probs for me so i stick with what i know to work! plus nice sound if you like that, which i do. Not a chav at all but its good to let poeple know your coming and you've got a turbo lump!, Willsy

In most circumstances wastgate flutter/chatter is caused by aftermarket dumpvalves which are incorrectly adjusted....be it recirc or atmospheric. - Just another reason to stick with the OE one
