Not sure if you want to do this I did some research already. Best option is to buy a JDM turnkey motor or rebuild your motor with some sti internals and get different heads. If you do a rebuild I am pretty sure your gonna need a custom ECU.

Heres a DIY for making your own turbo kit. The ej25d engine can only take 6psi of boost safely..
