You will need the STi pink injectors, Walbro fuel pump and engine managment, such as Accessport, I also would recommend a protune. Gruppe-S.com is selling VF34 turbo packages for pretty cheap.

1.) Disregard the above posts, they either misread your question, or just don't know any better. The 06 injectors flow MORE than the JDM STI "Pinks".
2.) You are to read this link and continue to research how to modify the 2006-07 model WRXs

i will say the vf34 isnt a very good turbo in my opinion. The Mitsubishi turbo's 16g, 20g...have better flow rate and if you order from Deadbolt they give you free rebuilds for life! A vf34 is not too small for a 2.5L wrx though, the STI has a vf39 which is even smaller...It really depends what your looking for. If you want lots of low-mid range power get a 16g, 18g for more mid-top end, and a 20g is an awsome highway puller.

and yeah, unless you can get a sweet deal on a used VF34, I would take a 16G over one for the price

I got a vf39 for $300.... got me to a 12.90 1/4 with a stock intercooler.... ALL YOU NEED is the turbo, gaskets, accessport, exhaust, and a bigger intercooler. You DO NOT NEED injectors or a fuel pump.
