Default Next upgrade for 2002 newage??

Hi guys! just wondered the next path to take to mod the Subaru to about 400bhp+. (I know the STI would be better car to mod but) It's a 2002 wrx model, current mods at 330bhp are:

VF35, 565cc injectors, FMIC, mishimoto air filter and cold air feed, 3 port boost solenoid, 255 fuel pump, full 2.5" decat exhaust, TGV delete.

Any help would be great so I can get saving for a wishlist ha!

6 speed/new engine either forged 2.0/newage sti lump/2.1 stroker/2.5 etc

Bigger turbo maybe an sc42/uprated clutch/brakes/suspension

Waste of money. ...........

As above gona cost way more than an sti which 400bhp is far cheaper to achieve

Perhaps the STI lump could be a future plan then or just stick with 330 and buy a glanza project car haha! And never a waste of money spending it on your baby

Going to need the 6 speed box also and a decent set of brakes, in the long run it be cheaper to buy an sti and get it to 400bhp and be worth more in the end than a heavily modded wrx

You will soon find that spending loads of money on your sadly under endowed baby will soon lose its attraction! Save yourself the heartaches and much cash, sell your WRX and get an Sti, a much better base vehicle for serious modifying.
