If you're talking about the Prodrive PPP exhaust, they don't make a full exhaust, only a centre and Back Box. These may give you about 10bhp. The main gains come from replacing the downpipe which Prodrive only do on the just released PPP for the Type UK STi. For £400, would nearly be the cost new of these bits (if you could buy them new that is, without buying the full PPP).

If you want a full system you'd be better buying an aftermarket full system from someone like HKS, APS, Scoobysport, Scoobymania, Power Engineering etc. Most of these should give you somewhere in the region of 25bhp.

Hope this helps,

Matt

As Matt says this sounds like PPP exhaust. It has different backbox and replacement centre cat pipe. Downpipe is unchanged.
400USD seems a little much for this as you could buy a new scoobysport back box and a cat replacement pipe for a little more.

I suggest you offer to buy centre pipe and backbox only, and dont pay more than 250USD.

Well, the backbox looks like it could well be a PPP one, but can't tell a lot more from that!
