early wrx 92- dec 93 is 240 bhp, then it goes to 260 bhp, then 280bhp for the type r, ra, and v-limited.

Have a look at the model code on the passenger suspension strut under the bonnet, should start GC8. Then compare it on the FAQ at www.sidc.co.uk

Bear in mind the car is 6/7 years old and if on 98 ron fuel it will probably only get 250-260bhp on the rollers. When I went to a RR day, only 3 cars got over 300 bhp, all substantially modded, then there was a big gap down to 260 bhp and below. Loads of disappointed faces, as people believe the FAQ figures!

Book in for a rolling road day and find out (approx £25), then you can start the long journey down the modding road!
