thinking out loud...

so I ended up getting a 2015+wrx factory turbo for free the other day, in good condition no less. anyway, im thinking of making a "custom" turbo kit out of it as a long term project.
model is GARRETT MGT2259S, cute little twin scroll unit.
I like that its a smaller, twin scroll turbo for spooling purposes.. even if it is all at awkward angles as far as air in/out/exhaust side etc.
i bet i could get a custom turbo manifold made up, something similar to JDL's uel manifold for rumbly noises (is a MUST lolol)
everything else could pretty much be tuned via ecutek like any other turbo kit i imagine.
for pump gas probably run it around 8-10 psi or so.

anyway, just sharing my idea in hopes of sparking discussion, wondering what you all think? i know a few people here have made their own kit and im sure most of you know more on the subject than i do.
