Here is a vague list of the specifications for the Subaru Forester T/tb. I say vague as nobody seems to have a definative list of specifications for this model and even though I have looked at numerous japanese sites for the figures I still cant find a definative answer.

So heres a disclaimer, disclaiming the accuracy of the numbers below and I cant be held responsible if they are incorrect.

The specification for the T/tb and S/tb are pretty much the same, the T/tb comes with a fake wood dash and a different interior fabric than the S/tb. Typically the S/tb will have a red, blue and grey flecks on a black background where as the T/tb will comes with black and grey patterns on light grey fabric.

Specifications:
Subaru Forester T/tb (Touring turbo model)

Please note: if you are looking at buying a Subaru Forester and see a T/tb advertised then as a Twin Turbo, then this is utter crap. Subaru never put a twin turbo engine in the Forester. The engine in the import Foresters is the same as that found in the WRX and is an EJ20 using a TD04H turbo.
