Never been in a car with an MD321T but from what i've read on american forums it spool similar to an FP Green (so probably slightly laggier than the MD) but make more power than a standard Green (so probably similar output to the MD)

On 1.6 bar it's enough to make my Up-rated Exedy clutch slip, i ordered the turbo last Nov when it hadn't been out long and there was very little experience of it even in the US, for the cost saving over the MD i thought it was worth a try though

I'm sure you'll be happy with it

Hi mate, do you get any compressor surge with that setup?? I know that the aftermarket inlet pipe can cause problems, cheers mate.

Not 100% finished yet still a couple of little things to do haven't got any power figures yet as my clutch slips on the high boost map, but would expect around 450ish.

Not really sure what compressor surge would feel like, but i have no issue's with the way the car drive so i guess i probably don't.

Some of it was done by me, FMIC, Brakes, Suspension, Wheels, Interior, ICE

But all major work and servicing was carried out by ACE Motorsport, and i must give big thanks to Andy who runs ACE for all his help and advice, his knowledge of subaru's is awsome being an ex-prodrive WRC Mechanic
