18g turbo for 06 wrx

Hi all,

i decided that is time for me to upgrade my turbo.

after i read all the threads i can find, im going to get a 18g. and here are my questions.

what size are my stock 06 injectors, do i need bigger injectors? how kinds of injectors do i need if i need to change it?

Do i need fuel pump, im pretty sure i do, but just making sure and what size also.

what types of intercooler should i get? USDM sti TMIC? get the Ypipes with it or get like some other brand TMIC ( i want to stay with TMIC )

i want my turbo to spool fast so i dont want like huge turbos. what else do i need for this setup? well of course a tune after the new turbo.

i have Cobb AP stage 2 right now, Helix catless DP and carbon ti catback.

TIA

-stephen

stock injectors are fine.

Throw in a walbro for a pump. Also get a STi TMIC tune and you are good to go.

If you can afford it, a Perrin TMIC is also an option you can consider

nice! i was thinking about the same setup! nice info. i was going to buy 650cc injectors but if the stock ones works fine i'll just leave it. Save the extra 400 for water/meth injection. tell me how it all turns out.
