It's when you try to add a turbo that things get messy. Toyota really needs to make their ecu's flash-able, if only for this car. Hopefully since Toyota is using a Subaru engine, Subaru will also help develop the ECU. Does anyone know anything about the ECU?
Side note: A EJ20H (twin turbo) would be pretty sweet!

EJ20H = Valley of Death. There's a reason they stay in Legacies and aren't a common swap.
As for standalone's, no big deal. May have to wait a bit for a plug and play unit but it won't be too bad. For example, a P&P Haltech Platinum Sport 2000 for my car is $1900 installed with a base tune. It's the rest of the turbo install that may be a pain, strictly from a packaging/fabrication standpoint.
I'm still worried about the strength of this new transmission.
