Default Hawkeye sti jdm limits

Hey guys am new here. Have put a deposit down on a 2005jdm impreza hawkeye and was just wondering what sort of power you can get on stock internals? And what would i need for a stage 3 map? Apparently it has a iHi vf37 hybrid turbo kaki moto exhaust but I don't know what else has been done.

I'm thinking about possible keeping the top mount and running water meth for cooling to keep the temps down

the later JDM 2.0 cars use the same Hyperpeutic piston manufacture as the 2.5's and ultimately can suffer the same fate of ringland falure......
personally would be wary of running one above 400 for this reason, earlier 2.0 cars ran a factory 'forged' piston and would be safer at mid 400's albeit your then into potential for rod / gasket / head bolt issues on a std engine
