Quite a good platform to start from.

The STI engine should be capable of running that sort of power.
The gear box is strong enough.

Basically you'll need a bigger turbo and fueling to suit.
I'd suggest The RCMS GT35VF P18 turbo which should take you to around the 420 bhp mrk.
Injector wise either 650's or 740's

Your existing ecu can be mapped to suit.

The other mods you've listed are spot on too.

Hope that helps

Daz

Add the fmic to that list also, for safety, 650 cc injectors (or I can map in 800's no bother), the RCMS GT35 hybrid/P18 will be the turbo thats suggested I think, you will need to use V Power fuel all the time after mapping. The 321H would also suit the objective, neither are OTT on a std engine suitably mapped, check out the P1 owners site, there were three cars using these turbos on std P1 engines that cracked the 400 barrier on the day, 401/375, 405/355, 408/380. All on no more than 1.4 bar boost.

cheers

MD321H from Lateral Performance would be good for just over 400bhp and could be used on a standard STI engine and would have very minimal lag.

Speak to Bob Rawle, as he has mapped a number of these turbos and will be able to give you good advice. If he is going to mao the car, then ask him for his recommendation

Agree with bob. FMIC, Injectors and MD321H, cook at 1.4 bar and leave to stand.

You need to get one that will actually support the performance, APS, of course, Perrin, Hybrid, Perrin one works well, mapped a couple of your model year cars fitted with that. As does Hybrid.

cheers
