the turbine i was going to put on the car was a t3/t4 hybrid and it makes full boost at arround 3.5k (correct me jorge if im wrong) it was not my first choice but it was new at a good price....

as far as turbines is concerned:

to4(t/4) even a 16g and EVEN a gt35r are good turbines to put in REMEMBER it is a 2.4L engine puffing the thing...... not a 1.8l or a 2.0 (and even w/ a 2.0 you can put in a gt35 and spool it quick and nicely)

if you want good accurate info on the Litter to Turbine thing

Well so far i've managed not to spend a dime and have gotten everything from friends for free. So I cant complain. Also never got a awnser from anyone to as if they thought I would be safe driving the car without a tune at 5-8lbs as long as i had a 255lph fuel pump, evo 8 fuel rail, at least wrx blue top injectors and a adjustable FPR with gauge. I figure with the fuel upgrades and turn the FPR up I should be safe as long as I stay out of WOT right?

+1. Do you have a wideband to monitor as you drive just in case? Just stay in vacuum and you'll be ok for now. As far as numbers at a fully tuned 5psi; I dynoed at around 210whp (similar tq) on a Dynojet, so you're current goal is definately do-able

well then with my T4 I will reach full boost a little later, around 4.5-5k I would imagine. Shame.. should i switch to a smaller turbo? or stay and try to find other way to spool it a little faster? I always have nitrous to spool it

any injector, aftermarket or otherwise, for the base wrx (search for applicable model years) should work in our car.

of course, that should be common sense...
