depends how far you want to go, im planning for 400 so went for 3".
keeping your downpipe with a cat back system, panel filter, fuel pump and a remap should see you between 320-330bhp

At the risk of sounding obtuse, I've got an STi and I put a blitz nur spec on it, I've never had it mapped and its been fine (could just have been lucky I suppose). The Check Engine Light hasn't come on at all.
I do know I won't be getting the most power possible out of the car though, so in that respect you could say its a bit of a waste.

Ah, my mistake, I do still have the downpipe cat. I haven't got a KS3/Knocklink (I don't even know what it is, I'm afraid).
I do want to get a remap done, as even if there are no engine issues, I know I won't be getting the best performance wise.

A knocklink is something similar that has been around for quite some time, the KS3/4 are more informative.
