My VF30 on 1 bar made ~200kw @ all 4, and certainly had no troubles up top. Unopened 205 with ecu, exhaust fmic really. Certainly found the wrong side of 200 with ease when wanted.

Problem is a TD06 needs boost to be effective. You dont have the pistons to smash the boost in to make the power.

So you will then have to limit boost -on 1 bar its going to make maybe 230kw, but be so doughy your going to hate life. It will come with a rush, but the reward wont be worth the wait. You also dont have a 6 speed to row gears to keep it anywhere near on song, and if you treat your 5 speed like a 6.. well there will be wanted ad for a gearbox soon.

Comparing an Evo to a WRX ends with "4wd turbo japanese 4 door" - the way they deliver their power, especially post mild mods its totally different. Never an Evo, but I have spent plenty of time around a few guys who have been there and done that - from exhaust and tune, to full build carbon door race cars.
