Over the past couple of days I have been looking at the Blouch Dominator 1.5XT-R turbo. After a conversation with Troy @ ProSpeed yesterday, it seems as though it won't really be suitable unfortunately due to the fact I'm just not going to be able to feed it the necessary psi to keep it happy. A TD05 will be better suited so it looks like I'll be grabbing one of these:
Subaru WRX/STi 18G-XT-R Turbocharger
All the usual retailers are out of stock and awaiting their orders currently. There is a secondhand one available on NASIOC, just waiting for a reply in regards to shipping to Australia.
Comparison with the VF52:
If I go with it, it'll get installed along with a silicone intake and the necessary adapter pipe a few days before the up-coming cruise.
