I managed 358bhp out of one
Not going to go too deep into it before the "that's BS" brigade turn up. But I had a RR figure done before a rebuild (328bhp) and then after the rebuild with the addition of 1mm oversize pistons, parallel fuel rails, 740cc injectors, FMIC and an Apexi PowerFC.
The VF28 was screaming its **** off at 1.6bar though.

Both runs were done on SC's rollers.

Have a look at my plus profile, I got 309bhp with supporting mods out of my old MY99

But if I did it again I wouldn't do things like the hoses and would probably go for a hybrid front mount and larger injectors.

2001 WRX, 324 / 301, vf28, 550's, decat up-pipe, sport cat, H & S catback system, K & N panel filter, intake front wing pod thing replacement pipe (from US). Since then I've added a big TMIC and a dawes device with boost gauge, will see what figures are when new box goes in

TBH try not to aim for a power figure as I aimed for 330bhp and missed by 20bhp, was I upset???? not at all, as the car drove so well, my advice would be, stick a decat, 3 port boost solenoid and vf28 with a decent panel filter and enjoy the car.

a UK classic with a VF** and remap is a completely differnt animal to a standard UK.

Just watch you don't blow the gearbox by aiming for too much power as every other component will be under more stress as the torque levels increase.

Not the best situation to be surely?? I thought they maxed out at about 330bhp inless it is due to a magic RR
