did u even try to look around first?, soooo many options all depends on budget and what u want out of it......and yes the 9 turbo will fit but u will need the install kit....check out speedelement.com they got some good options or the more popular Amsperformance.com and Buschurracing.com

The IX is a solid cost effective choice and will fit with the appropriate install kit. An Evo Green would also be a nice option if you're looking for more power.

Plenty of info on both options available. Try a search.

Good luck.

its what you want man. Evo 9 is a good solid choice. Cheap used turbo and with 200 dollar kit from FR your up and going. THe evo 9 turbo will make more power over yours but the Frgreen will make alot more. If you want to make a little more go evo 9 if you want to make around high 3oo's low 400's on pump gas hit the green up.

(you will need install kit if you have Evo VIII) install kit usually cost more then 120$ and your deal his ok i guess
