The way out is through

Slowboy GT30-10: http://www.garagetuning.com/Products/turbo.htm

I got it used through the shop at a good price... and intended to use it on my 2.0L motor. But since the 2.0L broke, and I'm replacing it with the EJ257, the turbo is a little undersized. However, I'm gonna get retarded quick spool which will be awesome for autocross, and it should be totally lag-less on track. So it'll be a hoot to drive, even if I'm giving up the top-end and peak numbers a bit.

If I knew I was going to be going to the EJ257 so soon, I probably would have gone another route with the turbo selection, but I'm still curious to see how this GT30-10 will do, and I expect to kick-ass on the low end, which is where all the fun it IMO anyway.
