It depends what sort of power you are after. A TD05 will have a little more lag, but more of a kick. But you cant just fit it and forget about it, it will need a remap to work properly.

Yes as above mate.
I have a polar performance ecu if you go with the TD05, You Wouldnt need a remap then but you would need to have full decat, td05, Uprated Panel filter and uprated fuel pump. I had these parts and the ecu fitted and got 276bhp from it. Its a v7 ecu for uk classic models (4 Plug).

will see if its worthwhile then or worth holding out for a few months and getting something better for more power and sell the one I have. Am getting a fmic and induction kit tommorow as part of my bigger plan it already has a full decat system fitted so a fuel pump injectors remap and a few other bits could I be looking at 300+ with that TD05 or would I need something else

There is no standard Subaru ecu for a 1997/98 (3 plug) that will run the correct fuel mixture and ignition timing for your engine when fitted with a TD05-16g turbo.
If you're planning on also fitting a FMIC and IK, then the only way to set it up correctly is a custom map on an aftermarket ecu such as a Simtek, PowerFC etc.

Ok mate will have to sort out an aftermarket ecu next payday then will it still run alright with the fmic fitted or should I wait till I get the ecu before fitting it

Incidentally, all the parts you have bought appear to be from a 1996 or earlier car. As such, before considering fitting the turbo the first thing you will need to establish (and sort if necessary) is whether it is a right-angle or front entry unit.
If it's a right angle, you'll have to convert it to FE before it will fit your engine. As such you'll have to take a view on its condition before deciding whether it's worth the cost of conversion - let alone the four figure sum you're going to be spending on the aftermarket ECU etc.
