2000 Legacy GT Limited Turbo Project
My friend and I are aquiring parts to turbo his 2000 Legacy GT limited.
here are the parts we have so far:
WRX turbo
WRX TMIC
WRX bov
WRX Fuel Pump
450CC injectors off a Mitsubishi Galant Turbo - Not sure if these will fit or can be made to fit, but we got a good deal from a friend.
STI-Ra Exhaust Manifold - in the description it said it should be a direct bolt on to a 2.5rs, but other than that i don't know if it was a good buy or not.
What parts should i look into getting next? I'm not in a rush to put this all together so any input would be greatly appreciated as my friend and i are big noobs when it comes to anything turbo charged. We've really been trying to research this project and have been saving up a good amount of cash for it so please post up some helpful comments!
Here is a mod list of the car as it stands right now:
Stage 3 Clutch
Fidanza Flywheel (9.5lbs)
2.5rs Intake
NGK Iridium IX Plugs
Underdriven Crank Pulley
Custom Cat back exhaust & Muffler
KYB Gas Struts
17" ADR Sokudo wheels
Sumitomo ZR rated tires
2.5rs Short throw shifter

Great! I've been waiting for someone to do a turbo BE Legacy project. You're going to need custom up / downpipes and some kinda em. Dunno about the RA manifold, I think it will bolt up but you won't be able to get the uppipe and turbo fitted to it properly. Probably better off using stock, Borla 2.5RS header or a TWE high output header (if you got the money). What are you gonna do about a hood scoop? Post some pics.

Here are some pictures of the parts I have aquired so far. I am still looking for a hood scoop, and y-pipe for the intercooler. If I have any glaring mistakes in my list, let me know, thanks, and any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
