Default k-nacked turbo

just found out my turbo is knackered so im looking for a replacement but i have a question

if i was to replace with the same turbo-would i need a remap? i only want to replace with the same again due to cost as if i went bigger i would need injectors etc etc and cant really afford it before xmas

car is a wrx blobeye 54 plate running ecutek map on standard td04 turbo

Isnt it wise to have the map checked anyway as some turbos seem to have massive variations even on a like for like basis. Not a remap but surely your mapper should check it's all running OK before you give it the beans.
