Cool thx, What actuator would i need? one off what turbo?

Yep it will have to be custom made, more $$ here

Thats what i started to do
So to clarify, I need a V5 or V6 Sti

Oh my loom has 3 plugs, does that still match the V5/6?

Hope this info is of some use.

Yes i figured that i would have to at least buy a walbro,
Thx so much for the info
