I am looking to obtain the above shortly, could anyone give any advice/opinion of them please.

Also, does anyone know how fast, and how easy to chip to make faster.

All help greatly appreciated.

If it's definately an XT with either the 2.0L or 2.5L engine you will be able to map their Denso ECU's no problem. They do not have to be chipped!!

They have Subaru Impreza engines, both using TD04 turbo's and both go well anyway as standard IMHO. Best thing you could do for some real go if you plump for the 2.5L XT is put an Impreza STi VF35 turbo and STi intercooler on it, get it mapped and it will go like the effing clappers!!

Go for the 2.5L XT, you'll love the extra torque over the 2.0L!! Impreza WRX owners would be very hard pushed to keep up with you, even PPP WRX's will only just about keep up!!
