to run a 16g you need to a) get one with an IHI turbine housing to mate up to the WRX up and downpipes, or b) get a kit that includes up and downpipes (like the buschur racing kit). the stock fuel system probably won't support that turbo very well. it barely supports a VF34 (and at that performance needs to be restricted) and the 16g flows a bit more than that. you'll need the standards: injectors, pump, and engine management. as for good and efficient, yep, it'd be a good match.

With ANY turbo larger than the stock turbo you will need bigger injectors, a 255l/hr fp and engine management to be safe.

yep. i've been down the road of running a VF34 on the stock fueling. after finally getting STi pinks and walbro pump installed, it's not worth the hassle of trying to run the stock equpment maxed out. sooooo much faster when you have the proper supporting mods.
