I think Hawkeye mentioned....
stickers, wheels & limited edition plaque - all gives 50 plus bhp.......
Nick from Prodrive mentioned internal engine tweaks but wasn't saying anymore......
Was a funny thread though

who cares ?
Prodrive obviously want to justify the premium for the WR1 and maintain some exclusivity....
and Sti PPP owners don't want anyone to see their cars as 'inferior'
face it, they're all fantastic motors! I've wanted one for years and would of been happy buying an un-modded classic but thanks to a stroke of good fortune was able to buy a brand new car and went for the WR1. Personally I couldn't give a to$$ if someone has a few hp more than me, or is 0.x seconds quicker to 60 mph....
....but maybe I will in a years time

Thanks, Nick.

Shame Prodrive wont let anyone know what is critical to change to get a reliable 320ps. Turbo must be close to the limit, cant seem them messing there though, vvt is programmable up to a point...no...my guess is wastegate/up pipe mod to avoid boost creep.
Anyone else know more?
