Turbo charger for Forester X

Hello

Was wondering if there's an aftermarket turbocharger for a 2004 Forester 2.5X that someone would recommend.

Regards Garry

Better off selling it and getting either a new or used XT instead.

It's not the turbocharger that makes the performance car. You can dump a turbo in, it will be a bit faster in straight-line speed, but it will lose out everywhere else. You want the whole package. And trust me, the XT is worth it.

Besides which the XT motor block is reinforced for turbocharging. Not sure the regular motor, good though it is, would be able to take the extra strain as reliably. The XT block is essentially the same as on the STi, which is boosted higher, so the XT motor is understressed, as I understand it.
