What injectors do classic jdm sti 1997 have ?
As above I'm taking the car to chevron to have the b14 bilstiens fitted and a few other jobs and having the ecu changed for the alcatek unit.
I wondered if I maybe worth changing the injectors prior to going aiming for around 350 bhp ideally . Will std injectors make this power safely?

1997 is the revised 'phase 1.5' MASTER engine with centralised coilpack/HT leads, and the STi variants got 440cc jobs. Think the engine designation is EJ20K. They flow enough for about 325-340 flywheel bhp (at std 3-bar fuel pressure).

Your car is supposed to have a 'medium sized' VF23 as std, which can do upto 350, I think. Thing is the v3/4 cars were a bit all over the place, equipment wise. It could actually have the smaller VF24. Also, I think there was the option of the large VF22 too.
You can find out by checking the turbo compressor cover - the info will be embossed in it.
But yeah, moving to 550cc's would make sure you're not left high and dry (literally).
I assume you've got a FMIC on already?

IHI VF22
(490cfm at 18.0psi, 250-325whp, Bolt-On)
This is the standard equipment turbocharger used on the JDM V3 Subaru Impreza WRX and optional on the JDM Subaru Impreza WRX STi 22b. Of all the IHI models, the VF22 has the largest potential for peak horsepower, and is capable of supporting the highest boost levels. It is capable of running up to 25 psi. The VF22 is a roller bearing turbo that utilizes the P20 exhaust housing.
Expect to achieve full boost with the proper mods and a quality tune between 3200-3700rpms. 2002-2005 WRX owners will need fuel upgrades for this turbocharger and proper engine management is highly recommended for all vehicles.
IHI VF23
(388cfm at 18psi, 250-325whp, Bolt-On)
This is the standard equipment turbocharger used on the JDM Subaru Impreza WRX STi 22b. The VF23 is a ball bearing turbocharger that utilizes the P20 exhaust housing like the VF22. This housing is mated with the smaller compressor housing of the VF24 for fast response and excellent low and mid-range performance. It does not have the same top end power of the VF22, but spools up slightly quicker.
Expect to achieve full boost with the proper mods and a quality tune between 2800-3300rpms. 2002-2005 WRX owners will need fuel upgrades for this turbocharger and proper engine management is highly recommended for all vehicles.
IHI VF24
(425cfm at 18psi, 250-325whp, Bolt-On)
This is the standard equipment turbocharger used on the JDM V4 Subaru Impreza WRX STi. This turbo shares its compressor housing with the VF23, however, this housing is mated with a smaller (P18) exhaust side. The smaller characteristics of this turbo allow it to provide ample bottom end power and quick spool. This turbo is very popular for Imprezas with automatic transmissions and Group-N rally cars.

Thing is, as I mentioned, in reality, re. the MY97/98 cars, I think Subaru/STi just bunged on whatever was lying around in their parts bin!
Although that in itself could be urban myth (wouldn't be the first time lol).

I will have a look at mine tomorrow it's in a storage garage at the moment . Although I've also been thinking of going twinscroll with it . Do the twin scroll units still have a good peak horsepower like the vf22?

Or there's the VF47 and the 49 - good for 370?
Or there are aftermarket options from Scooby Clinic.
