Default Mapping, Mods & Mileage

When is mileage a big factor when deciding to go that little bit more,

Currently running 343ish mapped by B Rawle about two years ago,

Car is sti v8 ppp, with harveys headers wrapped/ported, cold grade plugs K&N panel filter 3" decat d/p

Suspension is all whiteline arb,s and bc coilovers.

Car is fully serviced by subaru every year although i give them the oils !!.

Iam looking to go to around 400 which im guessing is td05 20 or similar caik 600+ cc injectors and before someone mentions i dont want fmic..

Hopefully that will get me somewhere near it, but................The car has now done 105,000 miles, although it has never missed a beat other than a 02 sensor..

So what to do, I dont want to blow her up as i love her so much !!!!

Gauges ? If the oil pressure is sound, 400 bhp isn't likely to kill it.

Mine was running 2+ bar of boost but eventually just started to lift the heads, if I'd known we could have re-torqued the head bolts...

My original clutch gave up at 360 ft.lb's so budget for that as well !

And finally if your suspension is tired 400 bhp will make it feel like a whale in a hurricane. IMHO.

Did I mention the brakes ?
