Default V3/4 inlet to turbo pipe ok to 350hp?

I'm wanting to keep my type r as close to standard in appearance as possible so would ideally like to keep the oe inlet to turbo pipe. With the new turbo, injectors and intercooler I have 350hp is a realistic goal.

So do I need to change the standard pipe for a larger one or can I fit a new age oe one.

The new age WRX one I have run up to 370 odd bhp on a td05-20g, so at least the new age one should work.

No need to upgrade but do a good visual inspection for any cracks as thats possibly over 20yr old plastic/rubber in a hot environment.
