Hi all.. new to subaru few questions.
Hi everyone on Scoobynet got my first impreza back in April it's an 03 Plate STi in the ultra rare wr blue 
.
It's been slightly modified with walbro fuel pump, Decat down pipe, HKS silent exhaust, RCM induction and a ecutek remap by scooby clinic. Running at just over 310 bhp...
I have very soon got sick of 310 bhp and now want to push it up 100
So I have been doing some research and have some questions the scoobynet experts surely will have the answers to so here goes.1 are 2.5 hawkeye injectors reliable for running 400bhp ?
2 Would the SC45 turbo be any better than a TD05 20g ?
I can get a TD05 for half the price of an SC45 and not a cheap eBay one.
3 Would I be able to get dual maps and pops on an ecutek map or would I need to go another route ?
4 Will the existing 6 speed box be ok running 400 with the standard clutch ?
5 how much are my standard injectors and turbo worth as I will be selling them when its finished.. Thanks for taking time to read a lot of questions guys.

1. Get some bigger injectors, im running around 420bhp and went for 800cc. Better to have a little lean way with mods instead of pushing things to the absolute maximum.
2. There are loads of different turbo options out there and everyone tends to do it a little bit different, if your looking at the scooby clinic turbos and aiming for 400 I would either go with the sc42 or the sc46. I went with the sc42, its designed for the 2.0 engine, spools lovely and delivers the numbers. The sc46 is the bigger brother of the 42, so some say slightly more laggy than the 42??? But will probably deliver bigger numbers.
3. I dont think ecutek can offer dual maps? Never actually looked into ecutek so know very little about it, im running simtek with 2 maps, but with the alcatek upgrade you can then run 8 different maps.
4. 6 speed newage gearboxes are really strong, people are using them in 700bhp+ cars!!
5. I sold my old standard injectors for £150. And my vf35 turbo for £300.
Hope this helps.
