I'm also doing an EJ swap, the stock ej20t (tt) longblock/internals will handle 405 hp on average which equals 19 lbs of boost. As long as you can push enough fuel to the motor, it's healthy between 350-400 hp. As long as your tranny will handle the torque of the motor, this is one wicked setup. A 915 will handle about 300 lb. ft of torque.
A stock ej20t header fits, an ej20tt's stock dual exhaust hits the axles, but since the stock exhaust isn't used, you get better heads, better spool up time, because of the sequential turbos, and better torque.

Stock EJ20T - 227 hp, power from 3000 rpm.

Stock EJ20TT - 276 hp, power from 1700 rpm.

I got the ej20tt and i'm gonna convert it to a single turbo, with a holset hx-35 from a 2001 automatic dodge cummins turbo diesel. It spools up at 4000 with the 2.0 ltr, and the turbo handles 40 lbs no problem. My good friend runs this setup on his wrx and it pulls harder than most any car out there. The car has built every thing down to the cryo treated crank, sleeved block, forged pistons and ported heads and everything else you can think of. He puts 30+ lbs of boost on 110 for fun and the car is rediculously fast. 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds...it doesn't have any problems getting through the 1320.

I'll build my motor to handle 600 ponies after the car is built up, so for now, 400 will do...
