30bhp+ from a downpipe is wishful thinking imo, however I am sure some resellers will disagree. Boost wise, I am not sure to be honest but if a v5 sti is less than 1 bar, then you will be safe at 1 bar

30bhp extra for down pipe? maybe possible if mapped as well, i got 18bhp and 40ftlb extra from changing just the down pipe and the tweeking the alredy carried out remap.
