my old sport had an sti exhaust and that was nowhere near 160 bhp,i think the highest sport bhp on the impreza sport site was about 140bhp (powerstation rollers),so i think your 160bhp is very optomistic.its a very difficult and expensive job to get good gains out of a 2.0n/a.
do what ive done get a nice turbo for the weekend and an astra diesel for work.also im paying the same in insurance for a ppp turbo as i was for a modded sport.the sport is still a great car, concentrate on the handling and brake mods but if speed is your priority save time and money get a turbo.

All the HELP was much apreciated. It doesn't take much to get more from an engin.
I have started tohe process to get a BugEye turbo. We'll see what I can do with that.

jmonkey : Going from 125 to 164 bhp is an achievment. Getting the first 40 bhp may not be too difficult but I assure you that getting the next 20 bhp is climbing a mountain and 20 bhp on top of that is lightyears away.
