Default more BHP on my blobeye wrx

Guys im looking to increase the power on my 2003 blobeye wrx.

It has a prodrive upgrade kit on it with a ecutek aswell , not sure on the map thou.
It's got a KN panel filter. I think it has standard turbo and injectors.

Ive just bought a sti top intercooler to start the mods.

I'm after around 360 BHP .

I guess the basics are

pink injectors
spark plugs

But need advice on which turbo and any other mods such as decat exhaust.

Then a remap who to use around the newcastle upon tyne area.

I did have a highly modified carlos sainz gt4 ( 450 bhp ) so i know a bit about cars but a little green on scoobies. any help welcome
regards
Daz

decat uppipe and a prodrive downpipe would work well, with mods you have, VF35 turbo would give a good 330bhp which is common upgrade on wrx, tried and tested.

Cool power?

Out of interest without doing the turbo how much more power would you get over the PPP? I am thinking of doing the same but wonder if without a new turbo is it going to be much faster? I allready have a lot of the mods sourced cheap but dont want to start changing turbos otherwise i go back down the get an Sti route!

i was thinking of a vf34. whats the difference between a vf35.

Also upgrading the fuel with a pressure regulator and maybe a bosch 044 motorsport pump

but will go with full decat

You'll never get more than 280-290 out of the standard TD04.
