    I would have thought the Td04 conversion easier due to the car already being twin turbo. But then I'm not really a fan of the single turbo conversion :D

    nope because the closest we can get to a bolt on is the subaru forester tdo4's, and flange needs to be redrilled.

    and then the firewall gets in the way at the back,
    and at the front the oil filter and engine mount get in the way and need to be moved. and the rad fan also gets in the way.

    to do a single you use 2 front exhaust manifolds, plum them together . and feed into a turbo. much easier to do.

    What about the GTO Td04's ?
    Wouldn't they be a closer fit ?

    Really nice work bro. Its a little wierd that your feeding your boost controler with air from the upper intercooler pipe and not directly from the manifold? Is there a reason for that? I have never seen it done like that. The most accurate pressure reading will be had from the manifold. Are you only sourcing the boost controller from the upper pipe or do you have other pressure sensors feeding from there too?

    no thats only a feed for the solinoid.... it was how the factory ones are set up,
    so thats how ive done it with the after market one... works fine...

    the boost controller, has the pressure sensors connected to some extra fittings on the back of the intake manifold, so everything that needs it is getting accurate measurements.

    nope no where near it... nothing matches the flange on the legnums.
    the subi foresters TDO4L 13G is the closest you can get.
