Question Fitting a TD05 20G onto a Hawkeye WRX? Straight bolt on?

Hi there,

Just wondering as to what would be needed to fit a TD05 20G turbo onto a Hawkeye wrx type uk which has the standard td04? I'm aware of other things required such as fuel pump, sti tmic, etc but just wanted to know whether the td05 would be a straight swap or needed modification?

Kindest Regards,

Subaru Collector 555.

Great, the turbo I'm getting comes with a fitting kit as I believe the TD04 has smaller water and oil banjo bolts. So that should be all I need to fit the turbo in and other parts etc.

Some of the TD05 variants from older models came with the turbo entry off to an angle, like this:

So some TD05's have been converted to "front entry". Although pretty much everything a bit newer will have front entry now.
