Question More power needed....

Ideas wanted to achieve another 30hp to net 300hp!

Its a 95 wagon wrx....(220hp)
THINGS IVE ALREADY DONE.........
Hks induction kit
Td04 turbo swapped for td05
Scoobyecu
Full decat exhaust from turbo back (h&k and ninja)
Hks sparkplugs
Warbro uprated fuel pump
Turbosmart boost controller running 15psi.

Its still on the standard intercooler so thinking about upgrading to a later model rather than go fmic but depending on price difference and availability fmic maybe the best way to go..

So what would you do next?

Whats the safest you would run your boost at then on oe internals then as a matter of interest?
Can only achieve a max of 17.summit due to the fuel cut on the scoobyecu unless i get summit to disconnect it?

Dont know much about the early cars. ....

The 'safe boost level' can vary from car to car. Without the proper setting up (ie monitoring gear and mapping) its hard to say.

Maybe worth finding out if the Apexi Power FC ECU wil fit your model... http://shop.scoobynet.co.uk/Product.asp?ProductID=1063

Dont mess with the fuel cut, it is there for a reason. Like Bob'5 says you are better of with an aftermarket ecu (power fc) then you can get higher boost levels with accurate fuelling.
There are cars running over 400bhp on standard internals. www.andyforrestperformance.co.uk some interesting things to read on there.
