Every time this topic comes up everyone has the same reply " WRX and STi are going for so cheap now days, just buy one"!
I cant tell you the in's and out's of it but i bet you most of the replies you get are going to be like this! Good luck mate.

Not gonna happen, you need an entire car to do it really. You cant turbo a sport engine in the way you think you need a low compression engine for a start.
Cost of parts to do the job you are talking about £1300, cost of a cheap and cheerfull old k plate turbo impreza £1200ish.
