UK BHP
Upto and including MY98 all UK scoobs were 208bhp from MY99 and upto present day MY02 they are 215bhp.
The PPP adds about 25-35bhp.
Except P1 and 22B Type Uk, STI7 of course

See the front page on here for dyno plots
The general consensus is that the 99MY ECU AE800 was 'better' than the 00MY ECU AE802. I'm no tuner and as mentioned, the rolling road figures are variable, but 225Bhp could be normal for a 99MY

Ok you clever lot help me out, I have an Dec 97 registered car (98 model) though and i have got an Sti back box what sort of BHP should I expect from mine.

Its 208bhp and 215bhp
The 218 is a PS figure which is 215bhp
218PS = 215bhp
The MY99 had the phase 2 engine which went from phase 1 - 208bhp to phase 2 - 215bhp
MY94 UK to MY98 UK phase one engine 208bhp
MY99 UK onwards phase 2 engine 215bhp

Scooby-si is right if a little enthusiastic
Most MY99/00's push out 225bhp as standard not 215bhp, and if youre lucky anywhere up to 230-232bhp. Mine is standard bar magnex backbox n is kickin out 227bhp, and thats with a dodgy MAF that needs replacin tomorrow

UK cars up to 97 had 208bhp and 201lbsft and a TD05 (big) turbo
At 97 the turbo changed for a smaller TD04 but the inlet was altered to front entry instead of 90 degree, so the air filter pipe runs round the front of the engine rather than round the back.
97 onwards cars also had a bigger intercooler and ran a smidge more boost standard. The piston design was changed (low friction) and compression ratio raised. The ECU was also revised.
Hence 97-98 cars had 208bhp and 214lbsft and the torque peaked lower down the rev range
In 99 the phase 2 engine was intorduced and modifications were made to the head.
Power rose to 215bhp and torque was the same at 214lbsft.
Thank you and goodnight.
