Just wondered what mobs are needed for 400bhp on a 1994 wrx import.
Want to make a list of all the part required so i can start buying them, the car is moded already just want to see how far off is it, mob wise.

 

The two main things you will need is a new engine and a stronger box

Banny

 

there just the small items eh banny pmsl

 

and a big wallet

 

On a 15 year old car? Forget it.

As above, you're looking at replacing the engine and gearbox.

 

Oh and then there's the brakes (there is no cheap way of doing this properly, trust me) and the suspension to consider!

 

Engine, gearbox (ppg or 6 speed), seriously uprated clutch, AP's for the braking (so thats about 7k so far ) and there will be more to add to that lot too....
At 7k your looking at new age STI money, know where my cash would go, and its not on the wrx

turbo, fmic, induction, ecu, fueling, suspension and thats another 4k+ ....

 

And that's just for the APs!!! #

Ns "Upgrading to 6 pots, Yay, but fecking ouch!!" 04

 

As said above get a newage sti already has the 6 speed, top mount and brembos for that power level. Then sort the fuelling and upgrade the turbo then remap and you should be at that power level.

 

or you could just aim for around the 350 mark and you wont fall too far behind 400bhp newages!

If you really want 400bhp the easiest & cheapest way is to buy a newage STi.

 

sorry dude sell your car and buy a better base to start with, 400 aint cheap at all

mus

 

Expect to pay £12k-15k for engine,turbo, ecu, gearbox, brakes and suspension upgrades for it to be reliable. If you want a quick way, stick a big turbo on it, remap, there you go.


















Followed by a big bang shortly afterwards

 

I'd build the classic, its more fun

 

As above, why not stick to 350bhp(ish)

A 350bhp classic will give a 400bhp newage a good run

 

There you go, this man knows.

I'm guessing, 440's, TD05, all usual supporting mods and you'd see near 350, I'd have thought.

 

oh yes dont forget insurance extra fuel and better quality of oil.

 

Sell it buy an Evo stage 1 mods fuel pump, decat and remap will see 350 bhp

Banny

 

I'll second the above from Moley WRX... we were pushing a newage with 420bhp around Oulton Park yesterday with our 354bhp Classic!

It's all about power/tonne... however we have spent itro 7-8k not including the car to get it to where it is today!

Not a cheap game... but a fun one!!

 

Thanks for all the replys, they are great. i think i will settle with 350bhp, as the car currently has 320bhp, with these mods: fmic, 550cc injectors, high flow fuel pump, apexi power fc, full decat 3" exhaust, water injection, fpr, Parallel Fuel mod, TD05 18g, induction kit. I think i will save my money and stick with what i have got and when i am ready ill go for a newer 6speed sti. Thanks

 

You should be making more power than 320bhp, with that setup surely...???

 

your 18g isnt working hard enough!lol

 

i was thinking that too you could make that power on a 16g and 440's

I suggest you go to a different mapper you could extract more with that set up m8

 

We're running 354bhp & 310lbs/ft with a VF28, FMIC, 440's @1.5bar on standard internals... and we're looking to upgrade to what you have got, the TD05 18G, you should be getting more like 370-380bhp if set up correctly.

 

get a classic chassis n fit a newage sti motor and remap it should be easy 400 and give those newage body a run for there money =)

 

More likely that the poor 15 year old engine has seen better days!

 

Valid point

 

how about an engine swap - new age engine + box into the old shell?

 

Tsk tsk, I ain't drove an evo yet that is quick enough for me

Buy an newage STI and remap to 450bhp It would be cheaper in the long run

 

2.3 Ev* will make 400+ for pennies....

Compared to a WRX.
