Lightbulb WHAT NEXT ????

what should i do next??? i have fitted gpa type equal length headers and up pipe, prodrive sport cat, 2nd decat, 4" straight through centre to a 4 1/2" ninja backbox, 255lph fuel pump, induction kit incuding changing the factory hoses back to the turbo and a k&n style cone fillter, prodrive intercooler hoses and a large top mounted intercooler to a 2001 wrx. i would like a reliable 300bhp but should i be looking at changing the turbo or going straight to get a remap not sure what the best would be or if i should be looking at changing anything else first any suggestions would be nice cheers bob.

the standard turbo won't make a true 300.. it is a 280bhp turbo give or take a bit.. usually see 279, 284, 289 etc.. perhaps close enough?

or TD05 16g, VF turbo needed etc..

With those sort of mods, I was seeing around 270bhp after a remap.
I added a VF28 from a P1 and after another remap, now have 320.

Clutch only lasted a fortnight though!!
If your going for a remap, i'd account for this in my costs 'caus its no fun spending the £650 plus vat then getting hit for another £700 2 weeks later.
I have a mate who remapped his bugeye to 280bhp and 300lbs/ft torque and had the clutch go too.
