v power, also can be mapped plenty of choices of ecu, esl, apexi, simtek etc. i think standard boost is 0.9 bar but maybe 1.1 on an sti. someone with superior knowledge will be along shortly.

Am i right in saying the original ECU is the same as the V4 and can't be mapped? I think you'll need a mappable ECU like apexi or simtec etc...
