HI

Im after some advice on upgrading please

I have a ppp fitted on a wrx04 uk spec

I have fitted some eibachs to improve handling & geom setup

Conditions

I would like to keep it mot friendly..ish,

Selling the car and buying a sti is not an option

Budget . 0 to 3k

No further upgrades after this,money needs to go elsewhere

Money to go on powergains only

Any companies that could carry the work out


Any detailed help much appreciated

or

320

Thanks wakey ,some good info
But the 280 is only 20ps more,and the 320 blows the budget by 1 k and i will always be in a position of owning a car that has the potentail of 360bhp if it wasnt for the gearbox,or so it seems to read

320 can be done within 2.2K...

Prodrive sports cat d/pipe £300 s/hand MOT compliant.
Walbro fuel pump £100
Sti pink injectors £250
STi intercooler & scoop splitter £400 s/hand
port & polish std headers £150
VF35 turbo £350 s/hand
Ecutek remap £600. Had mine done by Zen Performance

You may be able to get bits even cheaper than this.

Sorry, and i mean sorry, but being an sti owner i can not give you any advice apart from sell your 04wrx and buy an 03 sti with ppp you could just about do it.....Around 300 bhp 300trq straight off.... an extra £300 for insurance maybe but do the sums....... if you really can't sell then i feel for you..........
