Default Need some tuning advice

Hi,

I have a standard Blob Eye STi PPP on a 55 plate and was wondering what the best steps will be to get some more power out of it. I was looking to get upto 350bhp.

As im new to Subaru I dont know what modding them is like compared to my previous car which was a EP3 Type R.

Could someone assist me with the best ways to achieve results, also what exhaust and de cat to go for, dont want anything loud or massive. Just something similar to the PPP box.

Thanks
Thomas

Decat exhaust, tubular headers (decent 3bolt ones), performance panel filter, remap.. should be getting close to 350 then..

they seem to vary around the 340~350 mark as the turbo is pretty much maxxed at that so every little item influences the result.

Or mod the chassis and suspension so that you can fully exploit the already adequate power, retain reliability and increase safety. Doesn't give you much to brag about on here, at meets or down the pub, but trust me, you'll have a faster car

Uprated fuel pump? Or is the PPP ok? Maybe NGK PFR 7B plugs too?
