I do not know about CX Racing but the only tuner make sense to me is Full-Race.
Crawford and Full-Race are leader in subaru tuning , crawford kit is not for stock engine and Full-race make it .

As far as tuners go, we have quite a few good ones. Bill from Delicious is arguably one of the best and his tune has worked out perfectly with the CX kit.

I know my idea about turbo kits and tuners do not come from my experience (i never had any turbo on my 86) and maybe far from real world condition but if you search internet and do a logical comparison you will see the best kit come from Full-Race .

my theorical idea:
Full-Race use EFR 7163 , the best turbo for stock high compresion 12.5 FA20 , better response than any Garrett GTX (see Perrin blog)
Full-Race is leader in designing headers
Full-Race is most advanced in subaru tuning like crawford

be happy

We're at 285whp on 10psi. Mustang dyno.

The clutch can't handle any more on the dyno, and the tires can't handle any more on the streets. Currently running Falken RT615K 265/35-18, but we're working on fitting 295/35-18 on the rear. We could fit a 305 but the only tires available in that size are semi slicks & drag radials, and we need a more street friendly tire. It'll be done soon though, and the 295 will be more than enough.

Once the clutch and tires are up to par we'll go for 14psi on pump and 17 on e85. Need to pass the 400 WHP mark

Nice! What did you do for the oil return line? Just tap the stock pan?
