need to change ecu when changing turbo too. but tdo4 is good for 280bhp and better low down grunt but the tdo5 just eats it when above 3000 rpm. depends how far you are intending to go etc etc. but the search will help.

A TD05 wont simply fit onto the car either, itll nned converting to front-entry (from the 90o inlet it was manufactured with). Also, the ECU cant be exchanged for another Subaru part; youll have to fit an aftermarket part, such as an A'PEXi PowerFC.

you do not need to change ecu and you can buy a front entry or a 90 degree tdo5 if you need one I sell them let me know if you put a tdo5 18g or 20g then you have to remap if you have a after market ecu yes you can remap to get more power but if you have a stock ecu you will be okay just do not run really high boost cheers

Scoobyman, you have a number of PM's in your inbox. It would be great if you could reply.
Thanks,

So what do you recomend for more power? Stick with the td04, get a td05 or hybrid 
What sort of costs are we looking at? would i need to change ecu. I have been told i cannot remap mine

You might actually find a remap and the standard turbo might give you the power increase to satisfy the current need..
Also worth considering a VF turbo.. slightly less power than the TD05 but more than the TD04..
