Pink sti injectors, straight through exhaust, upgraded fuel pump, STI intercooler, bigger turbo, i'm not to sure which turbo is on the blob, then a re-map.

Injectors, brakes, suspension is a good option but not necessary (though the brake upgrade is), VF35 is the turbo of choice, 3 inch exhaust (decat or sports cat), should give you 330bhp with a remap and a fuel pump.

VF35 would be a pretty reasonable choice, although there are a few others with very similar properties

Remember if you go anymore on the WRX dont forget to budget for a new gearbox and clutch!! Only tune it if you can afford it!!

Ask Harvey about porting the headers to improve the low end spool

I would really consider the brakes, no point in having more power if you have the stopping power of a ford ka(k)

Cheapest option would be to buy some pink sti injectors from a 2001-2007 car im sure they flow up to about 400 bhp

As has been said the Sti Pink injectors work very well.

I am about to start selling injectors as tbh I am fed up with some of the rubbish injectors I find fitted to some cars when I turn up to map them so even if I only sell one set and then map that car it will be one better car out there.

However I am only looking at doing new injectors, so it will be cheaper for you to buy some sti pink injectors,
