Yep, consists of intercooler piping with PRODRIVE on, backbox, ecu, exhaust, including a (believe its an STI 5) centre baffle box, which replaces the centre cat.
Approx 250bhp on super unleaded fuel, around 240lbs of torque.

Could check for you tomorrow on the one I have if you like when I whip it off to put the cat back on for the MOT (as I also have no CAT in the downpipe).

The bulges are indeed resonator boxes. It looks like the cat is still installed but of course it isn't

Easiest way of telling a PPP MY99/00 is under hard acceleration, the car sounds more like a Tornado/jet aircraft taking off This is due to the resonator boxes...

IIRC STi is stamped on the large resonator - which you wouldn't expect given that its a UK/Prodrive car

I'm glad it wasn't just my car then (MY00/PPP), several people asked me why it had a loud, piercing screech instead of the usual scooby burble. 'Twas the only downside of the PPP really, it made a lovely noise until about 4500rpm when the aircraft noise came in rather suddenly.

I seem to have a habit of buying scoobies that don't burble - the new one has equal length headers...

OK Photos available if you want them emailing.

No main part number, and it does not say STi on it, but does have an ID number on the main resonator (where the cat was) and the smaller resonator after it.

Also, andyc_772, mine made the banshee screem with the straight through centre or the now fitted P1 centre section. If anything the PPP centre section quietened it down (which was the idea after all), then the decat downpipe actually lowered the note a little but didn't really make it any louder.
