I acknowledge that the PossumLink is the hot setup for the EJ20 in Oz, but it is not directly applicable to an EJ22T and its peculiar ECU that we have here in the land of the overly regulated. My many attempts to track down a Link ECU all lead to a sole US distributor who has the price fixed at $1300 US + $300 for the required programming module. I don't know of anyone in the US who dyno tunes the Link. A Link is an obvious choice in UK OZ NZ, but it aint worth a bucket of spit to us poor bastards with the radically detuned USA faux turbo cars.
A Dastek Unichip on the other hand costs a mere $500 and has a fairly extensive dealer network, although 4WD dynos are scarce as hen's teeth.
Another consideration for our third world country (besides the fact that we can't even provide dependable electricity to the west coast's biggest cities) is the fact that we have shit for fuel. The best readily available pump gas is 92 octane which is considerably lower than in Japan, Oz, UK or NZ. A good tuning job for the land of single cams, no intercoolers and low boost must account for the fact that we only get "grandma" fuel.

Link vs Unichip in Third World USA
That is a shame, cause the link will fit on the EJ22 and EJ25 motors.
No re-wiring, just plug it in 30mins later you are all go.
Our worst fuel in NZ is 91 octane, both of my Subaru's will melt the
engines on 91. I run 98 or higher. Why don't you import it from NZ on
the net, with your exchange rate you would pay about $600 US for one,
buying it from NZ or OZ. You can tune them reasonabily easy without a
dyno.
Go to this site http://www.mrtrally.com.au/performance/ and have a
read under link computer.

Link vs Unichip in Third World USA
I just had a look at the site and it looks like they have a plug in
unit for some Subarus but most of us are running 89-94 Turbo Legacys
and are stuck with what I think is a for USA only ECU. They show one
With Three plugs and our ECUs have four yellow plugs. I wonder about
the wire in model. These have been tried rather unsucsessfully here
but they were not Link units one is a GEMS unit not sure of the other.
