Default Quick Update on Wrx

I have been buying a few things for my wrx and just wondered what ur general thoughts were, looking for 300ish bhp, if u think i need anything else just say.

Fmic
s/s downpipe
3.5 straight through exhaust
s/s headers
do luck panel filter
440 injectors (needed)
upgraded fuel pump (needed)

Just realised Andy forrest is only a 2min drive from my house so will need it remapped when all parts fitted.

Anything else?????

Not sure but think your turbo will be hard pushed over 285ish. May be wrong though!

You do not indicate what model and year and therefore it is hard to give you sensible advice but if the car is 97MY onwards you do not need an FMIC for 300 bhp regardless of what any spiv sales people elsewhere might tell you.

93-96 cars benefit from an EFFICIENT FMIC beyond 280 bhp and you should go for the Hybrid tube and fin.
