Okay, planning the next stage of mods, anything I've missed

Engine.

VF34/35 (or maybe an SC36 Billet)
TGV Delete (just need some welding in my spare inlet to sort this)
STI Pinks
Exedy pink plus flywheel

Chassis.

K-sport 356mm 6/8 pots
STI Brembo rears
BCs (if funds allow)

Obviously a remap and wheel alignment

I can't think of anything else this side of a stroker/gearbox upgrade.

I also need to get a couple more bits of flocking done and sort out a respray, so anyone want to buy 2 small children

Sounds like you will have a beast on your hands when all that is done Jon.

Fuel pump is done, STI Pinks = bigger injectors.

The SC36 is a 16G equivalent, and the SC38 is an 18G

FPR possibly, I'll take advice but the fuel pump and pinks should be fine on a standard one.

Sump and cooler would come with a stroker upgrade. IIRC it is an engine out (or at least hoisted) to get the sump off

That will be very impressive on a WRX but will you not be on borrowed time in teams on the cast pistons and gearbox?

It will depend upon how it treat it. According to many the newage WRX is good for 400bhp in the standard internals, but I'll not push it too far. Again with care people have run a WRX 5-speed with 400bhp for a couple of years, but 350 is the often quoted limit so I should be okay.

Worst case I'll have an excuse to stroke the engine

Rich has been more of a sounding board for my ideas, I think he knows too well that I'll do it when I am good and ready

With your forged pistons I reckon 400bhp plus wouldnt be an issue with a respective turbo? Though you would also need an uprated fuel pump & injectors, intake kit maybe, remap, TMIC would be good for the job.

Rich reckons I could easily do 450bhp possibly more...
Have got a walbro in already but the injectors are pretty much maxed out at the moment.
I was thinking front mount because they are so much better for cooling and also cause they just look the shizzle!!!
Also i would think about an after market ECM for things like anti lag and launch control.
