[xxkopa666xx]

well i just put a new turbo on my wrx and im getting boost creep really bad when i got the turbo it said this is a perfict upgrade for people with alittle work done and would rub a stock injectors and stock boost and add 70 hsp. wrxs stock push 13.5 psi right so how do i fix my problem im pushing way over that my boost gage reads way over 15 so im not really sure what the boost is i just know its to much can some one please help me

Unless it's a OEM td04 it needs to be tuned. I would never attempt running a larger turbo without new injectors and fuel pump. If it adds power it requires more fuel, increasing IDC.. so there you go.

Until you have replaced at least the following:
Uppipe
Downpipe
Injectors
Fuel pump
Tuning appointment

That car should be parked and not driven. Driving it in its current state will likely cause the motor to let go, leaving you with a pretty hefty bill.

There isn't.

Being in PA, you can either go to NJ/NY/CT/MD, depending on where about (N/S/E/W) you are.

^this.. all of those things are absolutely required to run a 16g. The engine should not be started until those parts are installed and the car is towed to a reputable Subaru tuner to at least get a base map put on it.

you done effed up, son. good luck.

did not really mess up that bad still got the stock turbo and i just bought a cobb ecu flash and i bought the turbo off ebay and it said on the desrption that it will work with stock injectors and stock boost but idk and i found a shop like 20 mins away from my house

Ebay and it said...
I, on the other hand, can offer you a submarine. All wheels are still attached, it's in only 100ft deep, all you'd need is a bucket to take the water out. It should float just fine...

First off, what is already done to your car?

Second, even a TBE and tune will max the stock injectors on a 2003 WRX. While you may run it on a 2006+ WRX (565cc injectors vs. 420cc injectors on 2003 WRX) with stock injectors, you MUST upgrade your injectors and fuel pump to run properly on a Bugeye.

You will need (bare minimum) 565cc injectors, 3" exhaust, larger TMIC, and an uprated fuel pump to install this turbo.

I can't believe you're arguing with senior members on this forum using "But ebay says __" as an argument. The Ebay advert even states "used with stock boost control." Well no ****. The stock boost control works with any turbo you want. I personally would have never bought that turbo given the mis-information. FYR, if you paid less than $800 for a new 16G, you've likely bought a Chinese knockoff and I doubt that will last more than a few thousand miles. Good luck.

Exactly.. you can see right there in the description that the seller is lying their ass off. That should be a big red flag not to purchase the item. You potentially did irreversible damage to your engine substantially shortening the life of the car, but I guess you're right, that's not that bad.. someone could have been killed or something.

I'd recommend getting that turbo off, then finding a good tuner who will advise you on how to properly mod the car.
