Yep, you need one of these Carls Scooby Site ver.2

What's the reason for fitting it, has your mapper advised one, and will they be checking the fueling after you have fitted it?

I would do the parallel fuel rail mod whilst your fitting it

Do a search for 'parallel fuel rail'

ive just had my car mapped by andy f and he advised me if i want more power ill need to upgrade my turbo tdo4 for the tdo5 (have done) a bigger intercooler so ive perchased a front mounted one as well as a walbro fuel pump and pressure reg which i need to put them on the car first then get it re maped. but when i floor it (foot flat down) it feels as though fuel is struggling to get through, hicking so i asume i need to fit the fuel pump and reg? im i right or wrong

you should fit everything and get it mapped straight away. The map won't be right for the TD05, and will cause all sorts of fueling issues, it may be destroying your engine.

drive off boost or swap the turbo back to the TD04, then put everything on just before you have it re-mapped

It's on the end of the injector rail, nearest the turbo.

I'd say it's more the pump. make sure you use the subaru teabag instead of the walbro one
