Default WRX PPP - whats it consists of exactly?

According to the Prodrive PDF for the WRX PPP its

- Recalibrated engine management system
- High flow intercooler hose
- Stainless steel sports exhaust silencers

Now that is ECU tweak, some Samco type hoses and i know there is at least a different back box....is that it or does it have a sports cat or decat as it mentions "silencers" ie more than one!

Only the STi had sports cats.
The WRX (newage) had stainless back box, ECU remap, intercooler 'Y' pipe and certificate.

All seems odd if the STI has more parts as the prices are the same for the 2006-2007 STI and WRX PPP packages:-

2006 - 2007 WRX and Forester £1,663.83
2006 - 2007 2.5 STI £1,663.83

Yea but i already have PPP as its a GB270.

I may replace the backbox with a Ninja for a bit more noise and (to me) a better looking tailpipe.
