Ok I've got one rebuilt 9b turbo, and one good no shaft play wrx turbo all ready converted over. And one of each that need a rebuild.

I've never really heard of anyone doing it, but I figure running a 9b with a wrx turbo isn't a good idea. Had to ask

So I'm going to haft to deside which to go with. Dose anyone know what your gas mileage go to with the 13ts on the highway normal driving.

The difference would be minimal if any at all, however you shouldn't make your decision based on gas mileage.

Been done, and works fine. May want to hotwire your fuel pump. Unsure on mileage.

I like the idea of having extra hp. what is the comparible hp running at say 8 and 14psi with the wrx turbo jumping up to 420 injectors and a supra fuel pump.

What works fine? Running one 9b with a wrx turbo?

There are peeps that throw the 13g/15g/13t on the front, and leave the rear 9b. Not sure if there are threads here, but on the others site there are some I believe.

Not the bes, most efficient thing to do, but it has been done.

Honestly, the 13T and 9B are common enough you can pick up another one for 100-150 bucks for one. The 13Ts require some custom work to fit though as well as brackets, so may not be worth it for you. if you decided to go that route, the 13Ts won't make much (if any) difference compared to the 9Bs. At low engine speeds, the turbos just aren't generating enough air flow to make a huge difference.
