it sounds like you are talking about the older version
there are 2 versions one has a p18 housing the other a p20
I ran the p18 on my my02 wrx with a std bottom end and got figures around the 390 bhp, most stis /p1's got in the 400's on v power
If I remember correctly Bob Rawles ran the p20 version with figures knocking on 500 with a built engine not sure which fuel
I swapped my p18 for a RCM 500 as I now have a built 2.5 and wanted more power
I was always happy with the turbo, there are said to be gains in spool with the new version
