Hi guys,

 

Upon deciding the stage 2 wasn't enough, I have decided to look at getting a bigger turbo and the supporting mods to go with it. Research hasn't lead me anywhere productive and I have run into the problem of knowing if a turbo will bolt on or fitment treatment is required. I originally leaned towards a blouch td05-18g but later found out it wont fit. Is there a list of turbos I can find anywhere that have power ratings and are known to fit this model forester?

 

Thanks!

The most common upgrade is the vf52 from the 09-14 wrx. You can use any of the sti fitment turbos if you are planning to go to a front mount intercooler, or some of the aftermarket tmics are able to accommodate that style turbo as well. Any turbo that is made for the 05-09 legacy gt or 09-14 wrx is a direct fit for your Forester. But if you plan on running more than 17-18psi you will need to upgrade the intercooler, they like to separate the end tanks from the core at those boost levels.
