no no!! None of the imprezas CAME as std with Front entry TD05's..... But there are LOADS of after market ones i.e. Mitsubishi make bolt on TD05's that are unconverted I think.
As above mitsubishi made front entry td05s but i dont think they fit, subaru only made side entry as they changed to the vf range when they went to front entry
I've just fitted a front entry converted td05 to a mates bugeye. You can cut the upswept intake off and cut just the end off, then weld it onto the compressor cover to make it front entry.

Yes OP, either do as James has said... Or you can buy a F.E. comp. cover form Andy Forrest.
You can also get 'em off eBay... But I wouldn't, TBH!

They are but i think you will find there supplied with differant covers at least when i had a evo they were as i bought a second hand subaru one and it didnt fit although apart from the cover they were identical,maybe in the add above they supply the same turbo with differant covers already fitted

Although that said, the Lancer Evo does have its own designed TD0x range of turbos too - but obviously with different shaped compressor/exhaust housings to suit that car's plumbing.
