Default STi Version 5 power after remap?

I have an STI Version 5, completely standard apart from a Blitz NUR Spec exhaust.
Can I get it remapped to run more boost say 1.5 bar without the need to change injectors, Turbo ect...

Thanks for any guidance.

not as high as 1.5bar as the VF turbo will shed a blade or two but yes it can be enhanced by a remap with only the exhaust changed or totally standard if wanted, the fuel injectors will be maxxed out around 1.35bar though, whcih isn't too unsensible a limit on the VF turbo anyway.

I take it that running 1.3bar with a remap & just the exhaust would see me pass the 300bhp mark? Would I need a boost controller or would the boost be set as part of the remap in the ECU?
Thanks for your advice, I just need pointing in the right direction. I've had the car for about three months now & feel the urge for a bit more power.

yes boost can be controlled via the ecu.. only addition would be 3port boost solenoid to aid boost control.. altohugh the standard 2 port boost solenoid can be used..

300+ possible yes.

Ecutek or Apexi PowerFc being the cheapest priced routes..
