Although from what peeps have said the new STi engine is VERY tunable

With 400bhp I don't care that it looks like a Mazda... that will be the fastest shopping cart in the supermarket car park!

Think I am warming to it slowly but surely... only in black though so you can't see too many "features".

Might not, The old PPP was £2,000 for 25bhp so that will make the new PPP £8,000 LOL

I don't know if this is true, but that will be good news after all.

If PPP gives you that much BHP imagine the BHP you'd get from a full de cat and remap

I'd hazard a guess that they have messed the figures up a bit.

The STI PPP will probably 100bhp more than a standard WRX

If a standard WRX is 220bhp(ish) the PPP'd STI would probably be 320bhp

I'd agree with that. No way would it be 100BHP. 30 to 40BHP max.

I would say "IF" the engines Pistons and Crank are up to it I cannot see any reason that a 08 UK STi with 268 Bhp could make not 370 bhp



This new engine has Quad Cam VVT (previously only Dual VVT) and with the Twin scroll turbo there is indeed a possibilty



I have spoken to a tuners who have worked on the 08WRX and agree this is the most tunable version to date :



IMHO IIRC
