You'll need either an EBC (Electronic Boost Controller), like Apexi, Blitz etc, or an MBC (Manual Boost Controller), Dawes, Turbosmart. Ideally the fuelling needs to be raised to match extra boost, otherwise your engine can run lean. And thats not good.

If you were to fit a Dawes the turbo will spool loads quicker. You wouldn't need to set the boost higher. Quicker spool, quicker car.

A genuine dawes can be got from the USA for a little less than £30 delivered..

Dawes Device Hybrid Boost Controller Impreza 92-00 Flat4online.co.uk Subaru Impreza Mitsubishi Evolution EVO Walbro Fuel Pumps Injectors Intercoolers

If you are looking for more power though www.enduringsolutions.com i think is a better choice (although more expensive)
