Your right Banny. Apologise. Mine was on a 2litre.
I was running at the time:
De-catted 3" exhaust
standard VF35
standard 550 injectors
K&N CAIK
EcuTek
Probably not relevant though like Banny says.

My 2 litre made 340 bhp, so with headers yours may do better ?
The 2.5 has much nicer bottom end torque tho'.
dunx
P.S. I know of a couple of 2.5's making 300/360 on std turbos.

With the equal headers and up-pipe I reckon it's entirely possible to reach your 350/350 goal. 
As said, if anything it'll be the turbo asking the rest of the mods, "Hold on lads, slow down a bit - I can't keep up!"

when you say standard vf35 ,does this mean its standard on some car...
on a 2.5wrx if the vf35 is used ,what else needs to be changed besides dwn/up pipe and reprogrammed...an uprated/sti tmic??? what power at the wheels/proven dyno

It's OEM fitment on the Blobeye STi v.8 (and Bugeye STi v.7), I think. The STi Hawkeye gets a VF43.
You prob. would only need Walbro 255 fuel pump, full decat system and remap (don't necessarily need uprated headers/up pipe/new TMIC) to max out the VF35. It should make south of 350bhp...

so ill be looking at :
200 pump
80 good plugs
1000 decat
1000 turbo

is the vf34 a bolt on upgrade for the hawkeye wrx or does it only apply to the older gda/gc8 type...its just there seems to be a really good deal on this setup in some shops.
