Just buy this, much newer, much nicer, much quicker 
plus its already at 400bhp, mapped by one of the best mappers out there it will cost you the same as getting your car to 400bhp, and its rare as its a limited

Problem is the 400 bhp, Sti's are just about rated to this, strength wise.
Forged pistons and rods are required. To be reliable and give you more scope, if you go for 350 to 370 then the cost comes down, Sti pistons will hold out, but the rods will need replacing with new forged items , again for reliability. Injectors and ECU and upgraded intercooler. 360 is a better figure to aim for!!
