Hello all just thought i'd drop you all a line, Recently got a MY94 WRX STI V1 Wagon and have just learnt the power figures through reading the forum etc and i'm slighty dissappointed with it only pushing out 246BHP. Now that's got to change it's already got exhaust on it but i think the cats are still on so will change that for sure, but what else should i go for? I don't want to spend a shed load as it's already had a new engine in it due high speed stupidity!!
Cheers!

 

The 1994 STI only produced 250PS when it was brand new; so being two horsepower down after all of this time isnt anything to be disappointed about surely? Id be quite happy, especially considering that it no longer has a blue-printed engine. Does the re-built engine have the correct forged pistons too?

There is only one catalytic converter btw.

It was a straight engine swap no re-build.
so is it safe to decat the down pipe? I've heard it can cause it the engine to blow and really don't want that again!

 

What gives the STI the extra power over a standard WRX wagon?

 

I'm guessing it might be the ecu but not sure
