And the ewg does do stuff on a stock turbo, I would say about 20whp on a stock turbo. Look at cornfeds car...
Your saying on a stock turbo on Eds dyno you will gain 20whp with just adding EWG? SO BEING into Subaru you should know on a stock turbo that won't happen!

OK you win, I don't know anything, I might be off maybe 15whp not 20 I have 2 friends both tuned on e85 and the only difference on the cars is an EWG and 21whp on his dyno , you have better control of boost, and when you have better control of boost you might just make more power..

Hmmm weird Ed told me if I were to go external wastegate I would have gained at least another 15whp and about 30-40 pounds of torque
