yeah turbo off a sti would help but youd need the injectors and a remap to go with it cause it wouldnt run right at all and probably cause damage,but with that and the exhaust and filter with remap youd c 300 mate

Don't forget to get an Sti Top Mount Intercooler, uprate the fuel pump and at the very least, as above, a set of Sti pink injectors, your exhaust, is it a full decat ?

VF35 turbo
STi Pink Injectors
Panel Filter (or good induction kit)
Walbro 255 fuel pump
STi TMIC
Remap

That lot should see you with 320-330bhp

thanks for all the advice, i have one decat pipe fitted at the minute but been looking at a s/s manifold and uppipe one peice off ebay but not sure if they are any good?
would the vf35 turbo be a striaght fit?
would the standard fuel rail work with sti injectors?
is 320 bhp reliable on a standard engine? am thinking of fitting a aftermarket oil cooler just for bit of safty
am from the lincolnshire area, is they any tuners local anyone knows of?
sorry about all the questions i just want some more power

Std fuel rail will work with Sti Pink injectors, no problem, did on mine - gone for paralell rails now though. I think you will be pushing the limits of a std WRX engine then though Mate.

1 VF35 will be a straight fit
2 std fuel rail with sti pink injectors will be fine for your needs
3 320bhp should be no issue at all on a well maintained car
4 Oil coolers are a bit of a grey area - if you havent got high oil temp issues it can be a potential area of danger
5 Tim at SubBus can sort all the fitting for you (kings lynn direction but mobile) - I can sort the mapping (i am Cambs but travel too)
