At the moment its just got a prodrive exhaust hks mushroom air filter & remap at the its 275bhp also looking to take the cats out change the headers, & possibly change the intercooler then have it remapped again

if its a wrx like mine you will have to upgrade ypour turbo aswell

It won't improve performance that much but will buy you more overhead in avoiding det as the charge will be cooler, especially if you run the scoop and undertray.

The intercooler comes into it's own if you buy a bigger turbo as the STi flows better with less of a pressure drop.

The STi stencil loks good throught the intercooler though :)
