Think you would need to find out why is it running so little bhp when the mods including the MD321T are capable of far more, was there a problem when mapping it?
Also what intercooler is on it, would have thought a front mount would need to be in place, or can the standard stI top mount cope ok with that bhp?
I know when i was running 410bhp on my newage STI i had to run a bigger Hyperflow top mount

not sure on clutch as i didnt do the rebuild
will have to ring teg up to get full details think it was mapped by steve simpson at teg but not sure with the bottom end going on only 10000 miles ago maybe its a running in map i have print out to prove bhp but not got a pic will take one soon and post it i have only owned this car for the last 3 months but got receipts worth around 15k for rebuild and mods also receipt for initial purchase in 2004 for £24,999

What Clutch?
How come your selling after 3mths?
Also I cant understand why its only running the power claimed with the build and supporting mods, yes its a nice torque figure but the bhp is a little low for what you would expect. Im aware the STI TMIC maybe a contributing factor, but you should be looking beyond 400, I would say 420+ then its FMIC time but only mapper could give you that detail for the specific car.
Have I asked already, or have you stated and I missed it, but where abouts are you located. If local I may come and have a look.

Not really mate, If a 2.5 build has taken place and I was buying/selling the car I would want to know the extent of the build, and although there is a difference of opinions of how an engine should be run in, I would say running at 1.4bar is not running it in, but then times have moved on so I could be wrong. 1bar/actuator pressure with a gradual increase in rpm and boost over certain miles is what im use too.
