220bhp to 260bhp?
My brother has a 95wrx 5 door wagon with 220bhp,he would like 260bhp like the saloon of the same year.He's changed the exhaust to a decat ,does anybody know what the difference is between the two engines?

Thats correct, the wagon will be running a td04.
If he gets something like a esl chip for his ecu that should put him near to 260 ps.

With TD04 turbo, Sports cat exhaust (not quite as good as de-cat) and an Apexi ECU mapped on my set up I got 260bhp. I did have flowed exhaust manifolds too, but those versus a sports cat - i'm sure you'd get 260 or a fraction more.

y bother with headers? decat, pannel filter and ecu map and its jobs a good 260bhp.
would stay well clear of manual boost valves, to easy to get it wrong and stuff it up, proper ecu remap (although a piggyback will be need on a 95 iirc, someone correct me if i'm wrong).
rest should be ok, only thing might be injectors, don't the preface lift run 330's instead of 440's, are 330's good for 260bhp?

I have a 95wrx wagon with panel, decat, td05, and a esl ecu still running with the original injectors.
Prior to a td05 I had the td04 running with a esl chip (td04 map).

The 93-96 cars run 380cc injectors. They can cope with 320bhp with an uprated pump and reg if properly mapped.
As you can see from the ECU maps above there are considerable differences between the 220bhp and 260bhp fuel and ignition maps.
One cheaper solution would be to source a 260bhp cars ECU and use the same TD05 turbo, or there are a few guys (not me) offering chips to change ECU maps which may be cheaper than finding the right ECU.
