blobeye upgrade
 
got a 2003 wrx blob.

would like to have 300 ish power, which would be just over what the tdo4 can deliver, would like a nice vf35 as my first scooby had this setup and it drove lovely.
my question is, if i fit a vf35, would it acheve 300bhp on std inj and tmic, or would i have to change them as well. tbh im not looking to spend big money, but need a remap sometime soon and thinking if for a few hundred quid more i can have a much nicer car i will go for it.

I'm going for a similar set up, I have a vf34, pink injectors, 3 port boost valve , Sti up pipe, Sti top mount. Looking for around a safe 320-340 bhp. I was recommended to change the injectors and intercooler to get the most out of the turbo. I may be wrong but I expect the 440 injectors would make 300bhp but that's pushing it a bit, same with the tmic. If you can afford it I would upgrade them.

nice one cheers.. tbh i didnt want to go above 300 310 ish as i kept killing box's on my last wrx at higher power.
i dont mind the 250/300 for the turbo, but then 130 for injectors 120 for tmic plus y piece, plus solenoid, all startss to mount up, which is what i am trying to avoid.
does anybody know if 440's and std tmic will handle 300bhp?

its possible to get very close to 300bhp on a td04 with full decat, filter and a good map

yes i know chap, my first wrx was running 290 with td04, but was horrid to driive, was on or off, hence thinking of changing to vf, as would rather have under stressed vf as aposed to maxed out td04
