The STI V2 'Wagon has a completely standard C-Series Saloon engine, turbo and ECU. That means TD05, Z4 and 260PS. The V3 onwards STI 'Wagons were similar to their Saloons equivalents (the 1994 STI 'Wagon was similar to the Saloon too, at 250PS).

This doesnt answer your question, but it will hopefully help you to ask the right question...

I'd go for the ScoobyECU - it won't be marginal re. fuelling and ign.timing as it's specifically designed around Esso 97 RON ... and boosts at 1.1bar, to boot! It's mapped for the ubiquitous breathing mods i.e. free flow air filter, decat downpipe and 2.5" or 3" full decat system... as per everything you've done!...

...It just so happens that my ScoobyECU'd ECU should be available for sale next Thursday 7th! (JGM will be live mapping my replacement Power FC the day before). I've had it for over a year with no probs. whatsoever - it idles rock-steady, etc.. I got it from eBay but the ECU it came in was a dud so I sent it off to Scott T for him to supply a replacement ECU, plus he obviously transplanted the chip over into it, before sending it back to me. It's all good.

If interested, please reply or PM...
