Default stock gc8 turbo upgraded to vf34

Hey guys,

To be straight up, I know little to fuck all about cars, and i wont denie it haha

In the future, when and if my stock turbo dies in the ass, i will most likely splurge out some cash and buy a vf34 turbo.

My question is, what other parts will be necessary in order to install a vf34 on a stock gc8 (MY00) to ensure the car runs smoothly and reliably like it did with the stock setup. I.E. will some parts need to be upgraded to improve the strength? Will i need a new TMIC? things like that.

My my00 cse4 wrx has little mods and i don't plan on changing anything apart from what I've mentioned above.

Current mods:

- 3" TBE
- Ecutek 1.5 type tune
- 500hp fuel pump

thanks guys, any insight/help is much appreciated
