Had a 'major doi!' moment, the Access Port is compatible with the following Subies :

Forester XT 2004-2006
Impreza STi 2004-2007
Legacy GT 2005-2006
Legacy Spec B 2005-2006
Outback XT 2005-2006

Not just WRX's get to have all the fun! haha

I ran it with the parts listed in this thread. If you're gonna go for the full dyno tune, add a Walbro fuel pump, maybe an intake.

Thanks! You'll enjoy it, my boy Lickwid put the vf43/sti tmic/catted DP on his 08 Forester, actually WE did. It's a fun setup!

P.S. - Why would you EVER buy retail?! haha

It's just better, gosh!

JK.

Apparently the VF43's don't crack at the waste gate as much as the vf39's, but that could just be because the VF39's are on older cars and thus more mileage = more prone to cracking.

The VF43 apparently has a stouter waste gate actuator, and should be less prone to boost creep. The WG is the same size between the 39 & 43, so are the compressor wheels & housings, just the shape is different. If you have one of each and tried to manipulate the waste gate open/closed by hand, you'd feel a difference.

Hmmm, well I don't need the map since i'm gonna get dynotuned. I gotta check the fundage and maybe snag this. I already have everything I need though sans the turbo.

TMIC buyers apparently are broke asses, TMIC is back on the table.

For those who asked via PM, I updated with a "tmic" only price.

Us i-clubbers are close enough that we can just meet up, haha. If I get desperate I'll put my parts on Nasioc and deal with shipping then.
