Default 350/350 for a P1

After running in my fully forged CDB on my P1, I want a 350/350 upgrade or possibly a bit more. The engine is rated at 600 bhp, but i'm not after anything near that. Just a quick street car. What are my options on upgrades. And will a V8 STI TMIC fit on my P1

yes the top mount will fit!! but it is by no means an easy task!!
go for the 18g turbo for 350bhp you should also consider 550cc injectors, ported headers and uppipe, downpipe, 3inch full exhaust system and i would personally go for the fmic!!
and of course a remap!!

My virtually std 2002 STI made 340 bhp on it's VF35 @ around 1.6 bar, so add some ported headers and you should make it !

IMHO

If you look on P1WOC, I'm sure that Marky Mark put a newage TMIC on in his project thread. However, IMO, the boost levels that you can now afford to run in the midrange will blow the TMIC. If you can afford it, consider Hyperflow or FMIC.

Re the Newage STI TMIC mod.

Look in the technical section [archive] around half way down there is a step by step guide.

I fitted a newage STI cooler to my old MY00 UK car which is effectively the same design as P1.

Not very hard to do really. Some say remote fluid res but I just cut a bit off so it cleared it. Hardest thing was mutilating the supports to fit it. Hour or two. Then you need to improve airflow to it.

As much as I hate to chop up a front bumper I personally would go the front mount route.
