Hi, I have an 04 wrx sti at the moment its running 420bhp running all aps gear with aps sr40 turbo.

Im looking at getting past the 500 mark. Im looking at doing it next winter but i want to gather the parts over the next 8-9 months.

What do you guys recommend on parts and the way to do this, stroker or forge?

Dave

 

basically forged stroker for ultimate
very deep pockets time

 

Standard engine will do over 500bhp

 

My standard engine will do over 500bhp? It only has 32k on the clock oil changed every couple of thousand.

What turbo do you guys recommend?

 

I was looking at this turbo?

Depends on your budget but my choice would be a billet MD321V

Ok thanks. So my standard engine will take it ?

 

I ran a rotated GT30R at 522.5bhp on a standard newage sti bottom end, so I dont see no reason why it wont with a healthy low mileage engine like yours

 

Ok thanks

 

But his is a WRX Banny?

 

You're right, I briefly skimmed over his post and saw 420bhp and naturally assumed it was an sti. He is doing well to get 420 on a wrx engine

 

No i do have an STI.

 

Your SR40 is making 420hp, if it is then that's good going, got a graph?

 

I did not want to open that can of worms

 

I do have a graph ill upload tomorrow, 417bhp to be precise lol

Would a stock 2.0 drive a V ok ??, if i though it would be driveable i would purchase one for mine and use it whilst my forged engine is been built.

 

Would be a little slow coming on but on boost would be brutal
