yea as with an 18g i'd probably go with bigger injectors etc to make to most out of the turbo, 16g spools up nice, just get it mapped properly

Are 440s not fine for 330bhp that the 16g will give with a map?

Are the '05 WRX OEM inj. 440s or 550s?

If the 440s - and you don't intend changing them - then get a 16g

If the 550s, then an 18g.

380s? Really? Even on an '05 WRX?! Surely not?
