I own a WRX PPP, I'll be happy to challenge a few STI's tomoz.
Last year I manged a few 88mph 200m sprints but the TD04 was holding me back in late 3rd early 4th. This year I hope to build on it and achieve mid 12's.
I'll be more than happy with 12.9 though!

13.7 with 260bhp.
Got 310-320 now. Another 10-20kg shed and suspension/geometry sorted.
Arf's clutch won't make it off the line! Some sight if it does though! #8.19

Yeah, yeah. 
Remember this Steve?
You're a crap drag racer?
Jesting aside, it's harder than people make it look. Is your power just a gues? Also bhp on it's own won't do anything.

id say that was about right,the best I could get with my old 2002 wrx wagon with 312bhp was 13.1 at 101mph at york.
then with my 1996 sti wagon with 310bhp I got 12.7 at 106mph....weight loss rules
will be going some time this year with my new 2003 jdm sti with 358bhp,would be hoping to get mid 12's
its all about the launch in my experience,ive seen some big power cars with crap drivers do some shocking times....knowing how to drag is key

Some of us have been around ( a very long time ) !
Back in the day we messed around at York with a home built Cav turbo that did 15's....
It was fun, but times have moved on, and I never got bitten by the bug to drag.
It's all about power to weight and a wee bit of driver ability.
I'm fat and old and my car has no powertrain in it !

How much boost it's running isn't always indicative of the power it'll make.
Your catted downpipe probably isn't helping. Is it the OEM one or a sports cat?

Explain how you actually run Matt, and do you use 5th?
How I ran mine was, give it death and dump the clutch at circa 6K rpm, into second til nearly the limiter, 3rd til nearly the limiter, 4th hold and cross the line nearly on the limiter.

My mates classic made 318 bhp/308 lb/ft @ IIRC 1.5 bar. Mine made 329/289 @ 1 bar. Similar spec cars apart from his had bigger injectors and a Power FC.
