V1 and V2 are the only easy swaps as far as wiring is concerned. Only 2 wires are required to be added to the vehicles harness, with a few more optional. If you convert the engine to wasted spark you can even get it running on a stock EJ22t ECU and let piggybacks handle the tuning.

All 5speed swaps are basically the same mechanically. 6speeds a bit more involved.

I can't help too much as far as engine strength is concerned. Most factory turbo Subarus are pretty stout with proper maintenance however. I would guess 300 crank HP is safe with any well maintaned motor. 400+ on some of the later or special versions.

Yes, Nasioc is a good place to start. Just always keep in mind....sometimes the interweb lies.
