I've had a remapped 01 wrx on a td04 standard turbo and it should go like a scalded cat. Very quick to spool up.
Should tick over nicely.
Really its the same as any car in regards to smoke on start up from cold and when putting your foot down. Listen for any noises when driving with the window down.
Let it get up to temperature and smell for burning oil smells.
I bought mine and it needed a new 02 sensor,100 quid.drivers side rocker cover gasket needed changing and parts come to 50 quid.
It also needed a new clutch 6 months after buying but this is all the same with any car.
